The Musharraf government takes journalists on a tour of the devastated Red Mosque

Tensions had been building for 6 months between the Musharraf government and those inside the Lal Masjid. Yesterday, troops using tanks and heavy artillery, stormed the Lal Masjid, killing a yet to be determined number of civilians while losing about a dozen soldiers. It's not clear how the guns, grenades, gasmasks and ammunition got there, or what the government knew about it. But we bring you the images from the media tour, provided by Pakistani Television.

Pakistan's 'Dawn' Newspaper Online raises questions about the number of civilians killed. It says the media tour was delayed for a day,' fuelling speculation that the government was buying time to remove some telltale signs.'
