How much of a challenge are recurrent bombings for Pakistan?
Dozens were killed and injured in an attack by an armed group in a northwestern city.
An armed group linked to Tehrik-e-Taliban (TTP) — the Pakistani Taliban — claimed responsibility for a suicide bomb attack on a mosque in northwestern Pakistan on Friday.
Similar attacks have plagued the country for about 20 years.

As a result, relations between the two countries have soured.
So, how should Islamabad deal with the bomb threat?
