Modi condemns cowardly attack on Peshawar school

Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday described the terror attack on a Peshawar school as a "senseless act of unspeakable brutality".

"Strongly condemn the cowardly terrorist attack at a school in Peshawar," Modi tweeted.

"It is a senseless act of unspeakable brutality that has claimed lives of the most innocent of human beings - young children in their school. My heart goes out to everyone who lost their loved ones today. We share their pain & offer our deepest condolences," the tweet added.

Over hundred people, including 84 children, were killed when heavily armed terrorists launched a brazen attack on the army-run school in Pakistan's Peshawar city.
