At least four soldiers and an equal number of terrorists were killed on Tuesday in an attack by militants at a paramilitary training camp in Pakistan's restive Balochistan province.
Army said that four terrorists tried to storm the Frontier Corps training center in Loralai area of the province but they were challenged by the troops.
After failing to achieve the primary target, the terrorists resorted to indiscriminate fire and entered a compound close to the check-post, it said.
The terrorists were pinned down in the check-post by the security forces in the subsequent operation, it said.
"Four terrorists were killed including one suicide bomber who blew himself up during the final stage of the clearance operation," the army said.
Four security personnel were killed and two others injured in the attack, it added.
"The valiant and timely action of the security forces denied the terrorists entry into the residential area which would have resulted in more casualties," it said.
Nobody took responsibility of the attack but Baloch nationalists and the Taliban militants often carry out such attacks.
