QUETTA, Pakistan: A Pakistani official says gunmen have attacked the base camp of a pro-government militia, killing four of its members.
Assistant Administrator Ali Mohammad says the attack occurred early Sunday in the Dasht-e-Goran area of Baluchistan. The southwestern province is home to a low-level separatist movement and Islamic extremist groups.
Mohammad says the 2,000-strong militia was formed a few years ago to help security forces, and that its posts have been targeted in the past by Baluch separatists.
No one has claimed responsibility for the latest attack.
