At least 13 militants were killed Friday in clashes with security forces when they attacked a Pakistani air force base in the troubled north-west, the military said.
The militants attacked Badaber air base in the suburbs of Peshawar city in the early morning, army spokesman Major General Asim Saleem Bajwa said.
"Thirteen terrorists killed so far," he said on Twitter. Ten soldiers were injured in the clash including two officers, he tweeted earlier.
Rescue sources said that they shifted about two dozen injured to different hospitals. (dpa)
