Girls school blown up in South Waziristan
The bombs, placed at three different places close to the school building, exploded and damaged classrooms, porch and boundary wall of the school building, the official added.
Jan Muhammad Khujal Khel, a resident of the area, told The Express Tribune that he heard three blasts at around 2am and then came to know that the girls was targeted.
He added that the school building was very "badly damaged".
The girls school was the only functional higher secondary school in the area and there were more than 500 female students enrolled in it.
Khel added that there was no casualty in the blasts as the building was vacant due to Eid holidays.
