Two bomb blasts have struck a girls' college in Pakistan's Khyber Province just a day after the Pakistani Taliban killed 141 in an attack on a school in Peshawar.
The explosions were reported at the Girls Degree College in the city of Dera Ismail Khan, in the same province as Peshawar where the Taliban school attack took place, according to Indian outlet NDTV. No injuries were reported in the blasts.
Pakistani security forces rushed to the scene of the blasts and cordoned off the area.

The town of Dera Ismail Khan is approximately 118 miles (304km) south of the city of Peshawar.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack but suspicion will fall on the Pakistani Taliban after yesterday's attack on a military school in the city of Peshawar.
In the Taliban's school massacre, at least 141 people, mostly children, were killed and 122 injured after seven militants - dressed as security forces - entered the building shooting at students and detonating at least one suicide bomb.

In my opinion the part in red is stupid....coz not much news about this is being covered!




I specifically turned on the TV but saw no such news. @seiko
ibtimes.co.uk is the only one reporting it :unsure:
 
. . . . . . .
@Horus am wondering, why was the security forces not on high alert.. I mean how can this be happening just a day after the brutal killings?

I think its because, there were no casualties and media log didnt find it "interesting" without the bloodshed!! :(

There is nothing our media doesn't find interesting. Heck they covered a man in a black coat and woollen hat, astride a container for 3 months showing him coughing and sneezing from every conceivable angle.

If it's happening in Pakistan, the Pakistan media will be covering it!

Pakistan army will have to face the roughshod now after these back to back attacks.

Time the moderate muslims of Pakistan raised their voice.

Frankly yesterday when they were repeatedly showing kids who said "we will finish Taliban" on TV i felt as if media was putting a bullseye on each one of them.
