A twelve-year-old boy dressed in a school uniform detonated a bomb at an army recruitment center in Pakistan, killing 31 people and himself on Thursday. The Pakistan Taliban claim responsibility for the attack, saying, "We will continue such attacks on those people who are providing security to the Americans. These attacks are to avenge the drone attacks and military operations in the tribal areas.” The attack underscores the ability of bombers to infiltrate even heavily secured military installations. In fact, it was the second time a bomber had struck the base—a suicide bomber killed 35 in 2006.
