US President Barack Obama:

US President Barack Obama was briefed on the attack by his homeland security adviser. 
He said it was too early to know the shooters' motives but urged the country to take steps to reduce mass shootings, including stricter gun laws and stronger background checks.
“The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world, and there's some steps we could take, not to eliminate every one of these mass shootings, but to improve the odds that they don't happen as frequently,'' Obama told CBS.
Attackers invaded the Inland Regional Center (Pictured) and began shooting around 11 am. They opened fire in a conference area that the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health had rented out for a banquet, said Marybeth Feild, president and chief executive of the nonprofit center.—AP

In Pakistan opportunities for women are limited:

Pakistan is a highly traditional, patriarchal society where opportunities for women are limited.

But in 2006 seven women broke into one of the country's most exclusive male clubs to graduate as fighter pilots – perhaps the most prestigious job in the powerful military and for six decades closed to them.

It is unclear how many women have joined the air force as fighter pilots since then. A New York Times report in June put the figure at 21.

The crash is the latest deadly accident to hit Pakistan's military.

In May, a military helicopter carrying diplomats to inspect a tourism project crashed, killing seven people, including the ambassadors of Norway and Philippines.

In August, another military helicopter being used as an air ambulance crashed near the northern district of Mansehra, killing 12 people.

KANDAHAR: 

The Afghan Taliban named a new head for their Qatar's political office. According to a militant source telling AFP on Monday he is a supporter of peace talks with Kabul.Sher Muhammad Abbas Stanekzai and his deputy Abdul Salam Hanafi were appointed by their leader Mullah Akhtar Mansoor. On Monday a member of the Quetta Shura ruling council told AFP Muhammad Abbas Stanekzai is a senior leader of Taliban who served as Afghanistan's deputy health minister during 1996 to 2001.

They are in favour of peace talks and were selected to reach to and understanding with the Afghan government and the international community. The source told FAP on the condition of anonymity. The Qatar office was established in 2013 to facilitate such talks.

Ashraf Ghani President of Afghanistan has made negotiations a priority since taking office last year.

The US, which recently announced it would delay withdrawing troops from Afghanistan in the face of a resurgent Taliban, is among the countries calling for a return to the negotiation table.

Earlier in July, the leadership of Afghan Taliban had disassociated itself from a process Pakistan had been facilitating to encourage the group's with the government of Afghanistan for peace an reconciliation. 

Pakistan's role is in facilitating the reconciliation process has always been considered as crucial but Pakistani officials have all along been cautioning about the limits of their influence on the Taliban.

In August Afghanistan had sought the help of Maulana Samiul Haq to urge the Taliban to resume the Pakistan- broke peace talks, which had been helded after the announced death of Taliban chief Mullah Omar.

Pakistan had hosted a meeting between the Afghan government and Afghan Taliban representatives in Murree on 7th July 2015, which was also attended by representatives from China and the United states.

The second round of the talks, which was scheduled to be held in Pakistan on July 31- 2015 was postponed after reports regarding the death of Mullah Omar and the ensuing leadership crisis among the Taliban.
