The death toll in Peshawar blast that rocked the Pakistani city yesterday has reached over 70. More than 150 have been reported to be injured..or grievously wounded in this suicide bomb blast that apparently targeted policemen praying in a mosque within the tightly guarded police headquarters area. Initially..no outfit claimed the responsibility for this but later….a brother of a slain commander of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan… Umar Khalid Khurasani… took responsibility . He termed it as an act of revenge for his brother who was killed in August last year in Afghanistan. Yesterday’s attack is so far the biggest one carried out by the TTP whose main targets...in the last few years have mostly been security personnel installations. In this video…we take a look at the emergence...rise of this outlawed outfit, TTP i.e Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan…along with discussing how Pakistan has become a victim of its own policies of harbouring terrorist organisations in its backyard.

In addition to the historically low temperatures, the region
also experienced a number of rare winter weather events,
including frost quakes, cracking trees and sea smoke.
Frost quakes, otherwise known as cryoseisms, are just like
earthquakes, which generate tremors and thunderous
sensations when large cracks develop in frozen soil.
Dan Skoff, KNWA News chief meteorologist, says that
frost quakes can shake houses, which occurred in
Arkansas late in January amid a similar weather event.
The NWS also shared eerie videos of trees cracking, likely
from water inside the trees freezing and expanding, which , "caused some tree damage and power outages.".
The same region also experienced sea smoke,
otherwise known as frost smoke or steam fog,
which occurs when frigid air moves over warmer water.
Sea smoke, which creates the appearance of smoke over
the water and typically occurs in the Arctic, was spotted
by residents in Little Compton, Rhode Island.
