At least eight suspected terrorists were killed on Wednesday by Pakistani security forces on the outskirts of Quetta in the restive Balochistan province. ADVERTISEMENTThe spokesperson said eight bodies were found at the site where the gunfire took place between CTD officers and the militants. Last month, at least 15 security officials and 18 civilians were killed as armed militants launched coordinated attacks across the province. In four days of violent clashes between the militants and security forces, around 206 terrorists were killed, according to the military’s media wing.
