2014 Peshawar school massacre
The 2014 Peshawar school massacre refers to a tragic terrorist attack that occurred on December 16, 2014, at the Army Public School in Peshawar, Pakistan, leading to the deaths of 149 individuals, including 132 schoolchildren. The attack was carried out by the Pakistani Taliban, who targeted the institution to retaliate against military operations in North Waziristan. The massacre elicited widespread condemnation in Pakistan and internationally, particularly from India, which expressed solidarity with the victims and their families. The incident heightened security concerns and debates on terrorism in the region, catalyzing renewed discussions about counter-terrorism strategies and the safety of children in educational institutions.
