WASHINGTON, Safar 17, 1433, Jan 11, 2012, SPA - The US strongly condemned Tuesday the bombing in Northwest Pakistan causing death to dozens of people and injuries to many others, which is considered the deadliest attack in the country in several months. State Department Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters that the US "strongly condemns today's bombing at a marketplace in Jamrud, in the Khyber agency" that killed 35 people and injured over 60 others. She stressed that "by callously targeting innocent peoples, the extremists who planned and perpetrated this attack are just showing their contempt for the value of human life." "We offer our condolences to the families and friends of the victims, and we remain deeply committed to working with Pakistan to address these kinds of terrorist threats and the results of violent extremism," she affirmed, according to a report of Kuwait News Agency "KUNA". --SPA 13:35 LOCAL TIME 10:35 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/960427
