Peshawar, Feb 27(ANI): The Taliban blew up five government school buildings in Pakistan's lawless tribal region near the northwestern city of Peshawar for promoting unIslamic teachings.
The militants blew up the schools in Darra Adam Khel area late on Saturday, Samaa TV quoted the police, as saying.
There were no casualties in the attacks, which militants said were carried out because these schools were imparting "unIslamic teachings".
