The attacks caused structural damage to the building and left it stained with blood and body parts.



Security forces killed the two remaining assailants, who had opened fire indiscriminately, the military said.



Ameer Sheikh, a retired army officer who worships daily at the mosque and got to the scene immediately, said that the attackers carried out executions.



"They got hold of their hair and shot them," he said. "I saw people who used to be in the front row with me, lying there dead.



"I met a lot of army officers who had rushed there, desperately looking for their sons."



Mr Sheikh's son, Nasir Ali Sheikh, who was in the mosque at the time of the attack, managed to slip out and hide in some bushes. He said that the terrorists had also struck the women's section of the mosque.



"It was very terrible inside," said Nasir Ali Sheikh. "There were two people wearing belts with grenades and bullets... for fifteen to twenty minutes, we were helpless and hopeless."



The main Pakistani extremist group, Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), which is closely tied to al-Qaeda, claimed responsibility for the attack

Very targeted attack.
