On Wednesday a group of doctors successfully removed the bullet lodged near the spine of the 14-year-old Pakistani schoolgirl.
Malala was attacked by the Taliban for speaking out against the banned outfits’ atrocities.
On Thursday US President Barack Obama termed the life threatening attack on the Malala by the Taliban as reprehensible, disgusting and tragic, and has offered assistance to Pakistan, his spokesman said.
“I know that the President found the news reprehensible and disgusting and tragic. We strongly condemn the shooting of Malala Yousafzai,” Jay Carney, the White House Press Secretary, told reporters.
“Directing violence at children is barbaric, it’s cowardly and our hearts go out to her and the others who were wounded, as well as their families, he said.
