Many of the victims were said to be in a convoy headed toward opening ceremonies at another school when the bomb went off. The U.S. military personnel are thought to have been in the area serving as trainers for Pakistani forces.
The region is known to be a Taliban stronghold and that group often attacks schools meant for girls.
