At least 50 people have been killed in a suicide attack carried out by the terrorists on the Christmas Day. A large number of people were present during the attack. The casualties will be much much higher as there are some patients, whose condition is critical. According to the elders of the areas, the government of Pakistan is fully responsible for promotion of terrorism in tribal areas situated on Pak-Afghan border. According to them rulers of Pakistan have still been playing double game as they have been using terrorism for earning dollars.
According to reports gathered from various sources, tt least 43 persons were killed and 72 others injured when a female suicide bomber detonated her suicide vest in front of the office of World Food Program (WFP) in Khar, the agency Headquarter of Bajaur Agency on Saturday, official sources said.
There were 300 to 400 people waiting outside the WFP office in Khar to receive ration when a female suicide attacker appeared to be in her 23, hurled a hand grenade and then detonated the explosive´s vest near the crowd, local media said while quoting levies personnel present there.
As a result, 43 people including three children were killed and 72 others sustained serious injuries. The incident took place about 8:40am.
After the blast, the rescue teams, local administration and army personnel reached the site and shifted the injured and bodies to Agency Headquarter Hospital where emergency was declared.
Hospital sources said that injured people were flown to Peshawar through Army helicopters and said that death toll could further increase as some injured were in critical condition.
After the incident, security forces and levies personnel cordoned off the area and started search operation to net the culprits.
However, no group has claimed the responsibly of this deadly blast.
The political administration said that 600 to 700 people come daily at the WFP distribution point to receive ration.
President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani strongly condemned the attack and termed it cowardly action of anti-state elements.
The Prime Minister deplored the loss of precious lives in the blast.
