According to police and rescue officials in the secured Police lines neighborhood of Peshawar, Pakistan, a strong explosion at a mosque killed at least 47 worshippers and wounded over 150 others on Monday, 30th January 2023.
Local media reported the explosion was caused by a suicide attack.

The explosion occurred during Zuhr prayers at approximately 1:40 pm, and police and army personnel were reportedly present inside the mosque at the time, according to police.

Part of the mosque roof and wall had collapsed and the area was cordoned off says AF reporters. A medical emergency was imposed with only ambulances allowed to enter as the injured are being shifted to Lady Reading Hospital.

"I am here at the scene and rescue work is ongoing," the Peshawar deputy commissioner Shafi Ullah said. "More bodies are being taken out. Currently, our priority is to save people buried under the debris."
Meanwhile, in Islamabad, roads leading to the Red Zone have been on tight security.

A terrorist organization Tehreek i Taliban Pakistan(TTP) claimed responsibility for the blast. TTP is creation of Pakistani government and army itself. Pakistani politicians were calling it 'good taliban' just couple of years ago. You reap what you sow.

Creating chaos is the handiwork of the Cabal when things are not going their way. The Pakistani foreign minister Zardari is in Russia right now. Three days ago it was announced that Russia will sell fuel to Pakistan. What else has happened the last few days? Iran had a military plant droned and Israel is thought to be who did it. Also a Russian presidential helicopter made a hard landing and there were injuries. Iran and Russia’s relations are stronger than ever as Russia is supplying oil to Iran. I believe that Israel is behind all of these attacks.

The Taliban coming home to roost. Or to the ISI: you reap what you sow. FYI: the majority of the killed and wounded, are Pakistani security officials.

I heard about that on the news. They were saying that the Taliban are responsible.
