2007-08-30 |
Unidentified militants fired eight rockets on a camp of Mekran Scouts, a wing of the Frontier Corps, in BalochistanÂ’s western district of Panjgur early on Wednesday. Barkat Baloch, a Panjgur-based journalist, told Daily Times that the rocket explosions were heard in the remote areas of the district. The FC authorities in Panjgur only confirmed the firing of three rockets. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. Also, there were no reports of casualties. Sources told Daily Times that an exchange of heavy fire continued between the two sides for more than an hour after the attack. Local police and the FC cordoned off the district. The local administration also started a search operation in the district. |
