Residents in Peshawar wake up to the aftermath of a suicide bombing.

On Friday a bomber struck here killing at least 12 people.

It was the latest violence to hit the Pakistani city.

Residents here say those carrying out the attacks are destabilising the country.

[Sohail Khan, Peshawar Resident]:
"The enemies of Islam and the enemies of the country are carrying out these attacks. Terrorism has no link with Islam. They are doingit to dent the progress of the country."

[Riaz, Peshawar Resident]:
"We ourselves are the target. It has now reached to our homes.We should contain this fire before it spreads more."

Since the start of the month militants have targeted United Nations buildings, army headquarters and police.

But now the people are also caught up in the wave of attacks, and more than 100 have been killed.

Due to the increasing violence the Pakistani army has launched a ground assault in the South Waziristan region.

They're planning to target Taliban militants along the Afghan border and flush them out.
