Pakistani commandos blasted fresh holes in the walls around an Islamabad mosque1 where armed militants3 are reportedly holding hundreds of women and children hostage. Officials say they hope at least some of the people inside will be able to escape through the holes. But as VOA Correspondent Benjamin Sand reports from Islamabad, the militant2 leader in the mosque vows4 to continue the standoff that began Tuesday.

Cleric Abdul Rashid Ghazi says he and his supporters inside the Lal Masjid, or Red Mosque, would rather die than surrender.

The pro-Taleban leader released a statement Sunday saying he hoped his death would provoke an Islamic revolution throughout Pakistan.

On Saturday, President Pervez Musharraf issued a blunt ultimatum5 to the mosque's leaders.

He says anyone inside the mosque should come out and surrender, and if they do not, they will be killed.

Thousands of troops have surrounded the mosque. Explosions and gunfire continued throughout the night and early Sunday.

An elite6 Pakistani commando was killed during the latest operation as officials struggle to free women and children they say are being held hostage in the mosque.

The militants' leader says no one is being held against their will and says at least 70 people in the mosque have died.
