Gunmen attacked a military-run school in Peshawar on December 16, at least 141 people including 132 children, in a brazen assault claimed by the Pakistani Taliban. Gunfire and blasts were heard inside the school, where hundreds of students and staff remained as army personnel and anguished parents surrounded the building in Peshawar's high-security zone following the morning attack.
