MOSCOW, December 17 (Sputnik) - The Pakistani Taliban published pictures of the militants responsible for the cruel attack on the military-run school in Pakistan, the Independent reported on Wednesday.
In a statement made by the terrorist group, they claim that the school attack was justified because government military forces have been killing innocent family members of Taliban fighters. Its representative, Mohammed Khursani, warned of further attacks in the future and recommended people to steer clear of military facilities.
The photos released by Taliban members show six or seven men in front of a white flag, holding weapons.
