India on Friday (February 7, 2026) categorically rejected Pakistan's allegations of an Indian link to the bombing at a mosque in Islamabad that killed at least 31 people.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), describing the attack as "condemnable", said it was “unfortunate that, instead of seriously addressing the problems plaguing its social fabric, Pakistan chose to delude itself by blaming others for its home-grown ills.”
At least 31 people were killed and 169 others injured when a bomber blew himself up at a Shia mosque during Friday prayers in Islamabad. The powerful explosion took place at Khadijah al-Kubra mosque-cum-imambargah in the Tarlai area of Islamabad, police said in a statement.
