Pakistan After the Peshawar Massacre

The Taliban's December 16 massacre of students at a military school in Peshawar was the single deadliest attack in the group’s history. But, by attacking the children of military families, the Taliban has dramatically increased the likelihood that Pakistan will move resolutely against it.

LAHORE – On December 16, the Taliban attacked an army school in Peshawar and killed 132 children and nine adults. Eight terrorists dressed in military uniform penetrated the school’s well-guarded perimeter and opened fire on the students and school personnel. Pakistani army commandos fought the intruders for several hours before killing the last attacker.
