QUETTA: Frontier Corps personnel claimed to have killed at least 12 suspected militants, including two key commanders, in Balochistan's Kohlu district on Monday.
The miscreants in Kohli's Nasau area were killed in exchange of fire during a security forces' operation in the area, and a large cache of arms and ammunition was recovered from their possession, spokesman Frontier Corps Khan Wasey said.
The miscreants were involved in attacks on security forces and vital national installations in the area, he added.
The miscreant commanders were identified as Jamir and Baloch Khan, Wasey said, adding that the dead miscreants belonged to a banned militant organisation operating in the area.
"Exchange of fire is still underway", Wasey said.
Security forces have intensified their actions in Balochistan after the announcement of National Action Plan to combat terrorism in the country.
