At least two police personnel were martyred and an attacker was killed in a gun and grenade attack on the office of deputy inspector general of police in Loralai, Balochistan.

According to security sources, at least 20 people were injured in the attack that took place during a recruitment interview for a low-level government position.

The injured were rushed to a nearby hospital while the area was cordoned off by security personnel.

Balochistan Chief Minister Jam Kamal condemned the attack.

Earlier in the month, four security officials were martyred and many others were wounded while staving off a terrorist attack on a training centre of a paramilitary force in central Balochistan.

Four terrorists – including a suicide bomber – were also killed in the botched attack on the Frontier Corps training centre in Loralai district.

The heavily armed terrorists attempted to storm the residential/administration compound at the training centre, according to the military’s media wing.
