This is so sad. When will our government step up and take solid measures against the production of improvised explosive devices?
How many more lives would be lost to improvised explosive devices? God help us.
Improvised explosive devices claim many innocent lives again. Wake up Government!
Pakistan has clearly failed to address the issue of terrorism. EU has now intervened and decided to provide Pakistan with gadgets that would help Pakistan in stopping the use of improvise explosive devices by the terrorists.
ohhh again IEDs…. terrorists common weapon …. and still we are helpless.
EU is helping us against the use and production of IEDs and providing us technology.
I think police need to be provided with bomb proof vehicles and explosive detecting devices, may God bless his soul and give his family peace…
