Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif, Minister of Defence, Minister of Interior, Minister of Information and Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, NI (M), visited Quetta to meet the injured children and other victims of this horrific attack.

Chief Minister Balochistan and Commander Quetta Corps briefed the visitors about the dastardly incident which led to martyrdom of three innocent children and two soldiers along with 53 injured including 39 innocent children of which 8 are critical.

The Prime Minister, Federal Minister and Chief of Army Staff expressed deep grief over the loss of innocent lives and injuries to the innocent school going children. The visitors seeing the badly wounded and critically injured children expressed that such a diabolical act of terrorism through these Indian sponsored proxies is a shameful and despicable act.

According to the PMO press release, India exploits these terrorist groups—masquerading under ethnic pretenses—as instruments of state policy. These groups also tarnish the honor and values of the Baloch and Pashtun people, who have long rejected violence and extremism.

India’s reliance on such morally indefensible tactics, particularly the deliberate targeting of children, demands urgent attention from the international community. The use of terrorism as a tool of foreign policy must be unequivocally condemned and confronted.

Pakistan’s security forces and law enforcement agencies will relentlessly pursue all those involved in this barbaric act. We will hold the architects, abettors, and enablers of this crime accountable and bring them to justice, exposing the truth about India’s cunning role as the real perpetrator of terrorism while it pretends to be a victim.

The Prime Minister expressed that entire nation stands resolute behind its Armed Forces and Law Enforcement Agencies in the collective will to eradicate the scourge of terrorism as well as safeguard the sovereignty and security of Pakistan.

The Prime Minister and COAS highlighted that it’s now time, that the nation displays a very strong resolve similar to the one shown recently against the aggression by India, to bring the fight against foreign-sponsored terrorism to its logical and decisive end.
