The Pakistani Taliban has claimed responsibility for a deadly blast in a mosque in Peshawar on Monday, the latest attack on the city in northwest Pakistan.

The nation is overwhelmed by a deep sense of grief. The sheer scale of the human tragedy is unimaginable. I have no doubt terrorism is our foremost national security challenge,” Sharif posted on Twitter. This is no less than an attack on Pakistan. Sharif added that “the entire nation and institutions are united to end terrorism” and that there’s a “comprehensive strategy” in the works in order to restore law and order in the northwest Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, where Peshawar is located. “The brutal killing of Muslims prostrating before Allah is against the teachings of the Quran,” Sharif said in a statement, adding that “targeting the House of Allah is proof that the attackers have nothing to do with Islam.”

Pakistan blames 'security lapse' for Peshawar mosque blast, 100 dead (The Hindu)

Pakistani authorities are scrambling to determine how a suicide bomber was able to carry out one of the country's deadliest militant attacks in years.

Security officials said Monday the gunman was killed in a shootout near the Afghan border. The TTP is separate from but a close ally of the Afghan Taliban. “It was the handiwork of a well-organized group,” he told The Associated Press. Sharif visited a hospital in Peshawar after the bombing and vowed “stern action” against those behind the attack. and NATO troops pulled out of the country after 20 years of war. The compound is located in a heavily security district of Peshawar that includes other government buildings. In 2014, a Pakistani Taliban faction attacked an army-run school in Peshawar and killed 154, mostly schoolchildren. His statement did not address why a TTP commander had claimed responsibility for the bombing. The death toll rose as more bodies were found and several of the critically injured died, said Mohammad Asim, a government hospital spokesman in Peshawar. The blast blew off part of the roof, and what was left caved in, injuring many more, according to Zafar Khan, a police officer. “From all entry points, there are multiple layers of security you have to cross” with ID checks. The death toll from the blast climbed to 100.
