Pakistani security forces killed four insurgents who tried to attack one of the main naval facilities in southwestern Baluchistan Province on March 25, government and police officials said. No damage was caused to the Siddiqui air station in the attack, which was claimed by the outlawed separatist Baluchistan Liberation Army (BLA), which is designated as a terrorist group by Pakistan, Britain, and the United States. Authorities say the insurgents were killed when they tried to enter the naval facility in Turbat, a district in Baluchistan. There was no immediate comment from the military.
