Bombs at Mosques in Northwest Pakistan

In Peshwar, Pakistan (place we watched documentary on in class on Friday) there were two bombs that went off outside of two Sunni Muslim mosques Friday. This occurred in Baz Darrah village killing 13 people and wounding 70. This was an attack over underlining the events or militant violence facing a new government. This new government is set to take power under former prime minister Nawaz Sharif. No one has yet claimed the two bombings yet but it is most likely work of the Pakistani Taliban.
