Security forces killed 12 militants belonging to Indian-sponsored Fitna al-Khawarij in response to a terrorist attack on a joint police checkpost in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Tank district, the Inter-Services Public Relations said on Friday. The resulting blast caused severe damage to the check post infrastructure and led to the martyrdom of 15 people, including 12 military personnel, two policemen and one government official from the ex-forest department.
