At
least
30
people
were
killed
and
50
injured
in
a
bomb
explosion
during
Friday
prayers
on
Friday
at
a
mosque
in
Peshawar,
Pakistan,
Geo
News
reported.


The
injured
are
being
treated
at
Lady
Reading
Hospital.
The
Pakistan
website
states
that
the
neighbours
have
extended
their
helping
hand
to
take
the
injured
to
the
hospital
on
their
motorcycles
and
cars.
The
cops
are
investigating
the
case
and
collecting
evidence
from
the
spot,
Geo
News
added.

The
hospital
sources
have
told
the
website
that
the
condition
of
10
is
critical.
It
is
a
suicide
attack,
Peshawar
CM
Mahmood
Khan’s
Special
Assistant
Barrister
Saif
confirmed.

Pakistan
Prime
Minister
Imran
Khan
condemned
the
incident
and
sought
a
report
on
the
blast
from
the
authorities.

So
far,
no
one
has
immediately
claimed
responsibility
for
the
blast.
However,
minority
Shiite
Muslims
have
come
under
repeated
attacks
in
Pakistan,
which
is
a
Sunni-majority
country.

The
“Islamic
State”
terrorist
group
and
a
violent
Pakistani
Taliban
offshoot
organization
have
also
carried
out
attacks
in
the
region,
which
is
near
the
border
with
Afghanistan.
