hit. A suicide bomb, detonated in the middle of a crowded park. | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
Security forces and rescue workers were quickly on the scene. As crowds | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
gathered amid confusion and chaos. As the dead and injured were carried | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
to hospitals across the city, one man described how he had tried to | :02:20. | :02:27. | |
help. I carried 20 children to the ambulance to be taken to hospital. I | :02:28. | :02:30. | |

happened their relatives. The hospital workers have been trying to | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
tell people to clear the way so that ambulances can come in, and bring in | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
more casualties. We are surrounded by security force, who are trying | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
very hard to keep the area under very hard to keep the area under | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
control as the authorities outside try to put together the pieces and | :03:35. | :03:38. | |

Shortly after, a group that split Shortly after, a group that split | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
away from the Pakistani Taliban said they had carried out the attack. The | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
Christian community was the target. Christian community was the target. | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
But it wasn't just Christians who were hit. Dozens were killed and the | :03:55. | :04:01. | |
number of dead is likely to rise. This attack, another violent | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
reminder of the challenge facing security forces here. And how | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
vulnerable these soft targets are. Indeed, the first attack happened in | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
by this group this year already? Indeed, the first attack happened in | :04:15. | :04:24. | |
north-west Pakistan on a courthouse, it happened near the tribal areas, | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
and it has been quite a violent year so far here in Pakistan, in | :04:30. | :04:32. | |

fairly quietly, 2016 went on to, got fairly quietly, 2016 went on to, got | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
off to quite a violent start. This attack, however, is different | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
because it happened in the heart of one of the main cities of Pakistan, | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
Lahore and tar getted the Christian community. Now, this is not the | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
first attack on Christians here in first attack on Christians here in | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
Pakistan, they have long complained that they have been targeted by | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
militants time and time again, and ignored by the authorities, so | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
questions will be asked what the authorities, what the Government is | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
doing, to protect Christians but on doing, to protect Christians but on | :05:07. | :05:10. | |

They had been told not to march, so they gathered quietly. | :06:08. | :06:11. | |

I am really shocked that a place of mourning, | :07:02. | :07:13. | |
of showing respect and those racists, I assume they are football | :07:14. | :07:15. | |
hooligans, they don't have to show up here. | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
The calm has returned here and people are restoring | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
the tributes they left here which were damaged, | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
but the scenes we saw are exactly what the Belgians want to avoid - | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
an increase in tensions following the attacks. | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
In Brussels's main Cathedral they paused too today. | :07:30. | :07:34. | |

social justice and respect. Over six days rebels fought | :09:31. | :09:38. | |
against overwhelming odds. Over almost 500 people were killed, | :09:39. | :09:41. | |

unionist politician. From what I've seen of what has | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
happened in Dublin today, I think they have made a huge | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
