While giving the information about it, the country's military said that six militants attacked an air force training base in Mianwali on Saturday morning damaging three aircraft. Three militants were killed before they entered the base and the other three had been cornered.

 

 

 

The military said an operation is underway to clear the area.

Islamist militant group Tehreek-e-Jihad Pakistan (TJP) claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement sent to journalists by its spokesperson.

 

TJP came to the fore only this year and little is known about the group, which has carried out a string of high-profile attacks in the country, including killing 12 soldiers at a Pakistani military base in the southwestern province of Balochistan in July.

 

Earlier last week, terrorists launched two separate attacks on security forces in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).In the Tirah area of Khyber District, an Intelligence-Based Operation (IBO) was conducted, resulting in an intense exchange of fire. At that time, one terrorist was killed, and two terrorists were injured and subsequently apprehended by security forces.
