Nation will never forget the sacrifices of APS martyrs: President
ISLAMABAD (APP): President Dr Arif Alvi said on Friday the tragic memory of the Army Public School attack was still fresh in the minds of the people who would not forget the sacrifices of the martyred children.
“Dec 16 will always be a reminder of the great sacrifices of the martyrs of the Army Public School,” he said in his statement on the eighth anniversary of the APS incident.
President Alvi recalled that the militants committed extreme barbarity by targeting innocent young children in 2014. He said it brought the nation together in fight against terrorism. He said the entire nation was firm in finally eradicating the remnants of terrorism and expressed the commitment that no attempt could weaken the resolve against this fight.
The president prayed for the elevation of ranks of the martyrs. He said the day was also a reminder to the international community that terrorism was a common problem of humanity and required intensified efforts for its eradication at the global level.
