The attack on children in their school had created unprecedented shock in Pakistan
Tuesday's school attack in Peshawar is seen by many as the worst in Pakistan's history of militant violence.
Over more than a decade the country has faced many attacks causing deaths that run into three figures, but never before have the attackers mowed down so many children.
The sense of shock in Pakistan is unprecedented.
Many are now wondering whether the country will finally lose patience with militants who have killed thousands over the years.
In June the Pakistani army launched a ground offensive to clear North Waziristan tribal region, the largest sanctuary carved out by militants in the Afghanistan-Pakistan region.
