Pro-Taliban militants have attacked a religious gathering in the Pakistani city of Rawalpindi, killing at least eight Shia Muslims and injuring several others, security sources say.

The violence broke out as Shia Muslim mourners massed to commemorate the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (Peace Be Upon Him), grandson of Prophet Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him).

Local security officials say the procession coincided with a sermon in a nearby mosque controlled by a Sunni extremist group.

The exact cause of the clash could not be immediately determined. But media reports say it began after someone fired at the Shia procession.

A curfew has been imposed after army soldiers were called in to control the situation.

Shia Muslims in Pakistan say the government must take decisive action against the forces involved in the targeted killings. They also accuse Islamabad of failing to provide security for the Muslim community.

The country’s Shia leaders have called on the government to form a judicial commission to investigate the bloodshed.

The killing of Shias has caused an international outrage, with rights groups and regional countries expressing concern over the ongoing deadly violence.

Meanwhile, Muslims across Pakistan have held mourning ceremonies to mark the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (PBUH). The ceremonies took place in a number of cities, including Islamabad, Lahore, Quetta and Karachi.

Mourners took to the streets in their millions to commemorate the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hossein and his 72 companions. They were killed during a battle in Karbala on the day of Ashura---that’s the tenth day of the month of Muharram on the lunar calendar.

Some other Muslim countries, like Iran, observed Ashura on Thursday.
