Homicide Bomber Kills 21 At Pakistan Mosque

Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).

A homicide bomber detonated a motorcycle full of explosives outside a mosque in Hangu, killing 21 and injuring dozens.

The attack was timed to hit worshipers as they were leaving the Friday prayers.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack.

“It was a suicide attack which targeted Shias but Sunni Muslims also fell victim since their mosque and some shops were also very close to the site,” police chief Mian Mohammad Saeed told the BBC.

The motorcycle carried 15.5 pounds of explosives according to police.

It was the second deadliest attack in the month of January following a set of blasts on January 10th in Quetta that killed 80 people and wounded hundreds.
