KHYBER AGENCY: Two militants were killed and four others sustained injuries while two explosives-laden vehicles were destroyed in action by the security forces in Khyber Agency on Sunday, official sources claimed.

The security forces targeted positions of the militants from the Fort Salop in the Gurguri area. In the heavy firing a militant belonging to the Sipah tribe was killed, the sources said. They added that four others, including a commander, sustained injuries in the firing by the security forces. The names of the militants killed and wounded were, however, not provided to the media.

The official sources said one vehicle loaded with explosives and arms was also destroyed in the attack. In another incident, the security forces claimed they blew up the vehicle of militants that that had been left behind by the fleeing insurgents in the Akakhel area. They contended that the troops in the same area also killed a militant who had opened fire on the soldiers from a car. The forces took possession of the car and recovered a rocket-launcher, a gun and explosives from the vehicle.
