Suicide bombers kill 41 at refugee camp in Pakistan

April 17th marked a day of dread when 41 people were killed and 62 were injured badly while attempting to distribute or receive food at a food distribution point in northwestern Pakistan. The two suicide bombers struck six minutes apart at a camp in the Kacha Pukka area of Kohat, a tribally administered region close to the Afghan border. They were dressed in burqas, the all-encompassing veil worn by conservative The reasoning be hind this is said to be due to the Pakistan military admitting to killing civilians in an air strike last Saturday in the northwest that supposedly targeted militants. Therefore these two men commuted suicide by becoming human bombs and detonating near as people as possible.
