The blast seems like a retaliation by the terrorists to today's operations by our forces. My hat off to the honest and brave Police, Rangers, and Intelligence officials that put their lives at risk for us. The nation's prayers are with you please take these terrorists, criminals and thugs to task and may Allah keep you all safe.
