December 16, 2015 07:15

The Pakistani military has released a music video commemorating the 150 victims of the Peshawar school massacre to mark the first anniversary of the attack on Wednesday.

The song can be seen HERE.

Against a wall displaying the victims' school portraits, kids in bright green school blazers run around as a song on the audio track plays a rousing refrain. Mujhe dushman ke bacho ko parhana hai (I want to educate the children of my enemies)," sings a chorus of voices in Urdu.

A year after Taliban gunmen stormed the Army Public School in the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar, killing more than 150 people, mostly children, the Pakistani army has released a video commemorating the victims of the December 16, 2014 massacre.
