Residents said the attackers arrived wearing military uniforms, and many people first believed they were security officers. Moments later, gunshots filled the area and teachers and pupils began running for safety. When the attack ended, several children were nowhere to be found.
Parents said the pain has been hard to bear since the incident happened. Many rushed to the schools hoping to find their children, but returned home with fear and unanswered questions. Some said they have not been able to sleep.
