Islamabad: Most of the students at the Army School in Peshawar were shot in the head from point blank range by ruthless Taliban suicide attackers, in one of the most gruesome attacks against children in recent years.
At least 132 students and 16 staffers were killed when the attackers stormed the school on Warsak Road and started indiscriminate firing on them on Tuesday.
Quoting students, Dawn reported that the attackers scaled the boundary wall from the adjacent graveyard and started firing while moving towards the classrooms and auditorium.
“Most of the students received bullets in the head,” Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa information minister Mushtaq Ahmed Ghani said.
