PESHAWAR, Pakistan: Militants stormed a security outpost in Pakistan's northwest, ramming a vehicle filled with explosives into the camp before waging a gun battle that killed at least eight troops and injured 35 others, two security officials said on Friday.
The bombing on Thursday night follows three militant attacks in recent days that have killed nearly 30 people and threatened to reignite fighting with neighbouring Afghanistan, which Pakistan blames for harbouring militant groups. The Taliban government in Kabul rejects the allegations.
