The deceased have been identified as brothers Sajid, Ayaz, Riaz, and Moaz.Local residents strongly condemned the attack, expressing outrage against the Afghan Taliban government. Minister Tarar said the assault was carried out in coordination with the terrorist group Fitna-ul-Khawarij and described it as a cowardly and deliberate strike on civilians, which constitutes a serious violation of international law and fundamental human rights.
