At least 21 people died when gunmen armed with grenades and Kalashnikovs attacked a university in Pakistan Wednesday.

當地時間週三，數名持有手榴彈和卡拉什尼科夫衝鋒槍的武裝分子襲擊了巴基斯坦的一所大學，造成至少21人死亡。

The assault was claimed by a Pakistani Taliban faction but branded "un-Islamic" by the umbrella group's leadership, who vowed to hunt down those responsible.

巴基斯坦塔利班的一個分支宣稱對襲擊事件負責，但這一傘狀組織的領導人將其視爲"非伊斯蘭"行爲，並揚言將追捕涉案人士。

The number of dead climbed rapidly after armed men stormed the Bacha Khan university in the northwestern town of Charsadda.

在武裝分子襲擊了西北部城市查沙達的帕夏汗大學之後，死亡人數迅速增長。

Police, soldiers and special forces swarmed the university from the ground and the air to try to shut down the assault. Television images showed female students running for their lives and witnesses reported at least two explosions.

警察、士兵和特種部隊從地面和空中涌入了該所大學，試圖阻止襲擊。電視畫面上顯示，女學生們四散逃命。此外，目擊者報道稱至少發生了2次爆炸。

"The death toll in the terrorist attack has risen to 21," said regional police chief Saeed Wazir.

“在這次恐怖襲擊中，死亡人數已上升至21人。”該地區警察主管賽義德·瓦齊爾這樣說道。

"More than 30 others including students, staff and security guards were wounded," Wazir added.

“此外，包括學生、教職工和保安在內，還有至少30人受傷。”瓦齊爾補充說道。

Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif declared a national day of mourning for Thursday.

巴基斯坦總理謝里夫也宣佈，週四將會成爲國家哀悼日。
