Rocket attack on military base
2007-07-06
LANDI KOTAL: Four missiles were fired early on Thursday morning at a military base in Khyber Agency near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border but caused no damage, security officials, who wished to remain unnamed, told Daily Times. “At around 2.30am on Thursday, four missiles were fired at the army camp in Landi Kotal in Khyber Agency from a hilltop around 150 metres from the camp,” the officials said. “Two of them landed in the camp, one near a helipad and another hit a room in Niki Khel, but there fortunately weren’t any casualties,” they added.

The culprits escaped, they said, leaving behind three stands from which they had fired the missiles. The Khyber Agency administration arrested two suspects near the Michni check-post who claimed to be from Torkham, an administration official said.
