3 killed in bomb attack on army vehicle

QUETTA: Three soldiers were killed and four wounded on Monday when a roadside bomb blew up an army vehicle in Lehri, Dera Bugti, AFP quoted official sources as saying.

The Balochistan Republican Army (BRA) claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it had killed eight personnel, including an army officer and several Frontier Corps (FC) soldiers, in two separate incidents in Dera Bugti, according to a Daily Times staff report. BRA spokesman Sarbaz Baloch said his organisation had killed four soldiers in the Lehri bomb attack and as many FC men in a second incident in the Tali Math area of Sui tehsil.

The attacks aimed at reminding the government that the people of Balochistan wanted the ownership on their resources, Sarbaz said.
