5 killed, 20 injured in firing by Afghan forces in SW Pakistan

Five people were killed and 20 others injured in cross-border firing by Afghan forces in Pakistan's southwest border area of Zhob on Wednesday afternoon.

Afghan forces opened unprovoked firing in Qamar Deen area of Zhob, four km from the Afghan border in Pakistan's southwest Balochistan province.

Some media reports said that the causalities were the outcome of exchange of fire between Afghan forces and local tribes, however there isn't any official confirmation about it yet.
