Another Attack Near Karachi Airport
A fierce gun battle has erupted close to Karachi airport, Pakistan’s biggest and busiest, one day after it was stormed by Taliban militants.
Local media say gunmen have attacked a training camp of the airport security forces. It is not clear if there are any casualties.
Flights have once again been suspended at the airport, officials say.
The Taliban gun and bomb attack on the cargo terminal of Karachi’s airport left 30 people dead.
It appears as if the attack is focused upon a hostel housing the airport security forces.
There are reports that rocket-propelled grenades were fired after several militants pulled up in a vehicle.
Ambulances were seen rushing to the scene and local media reports say that gunfire can still be heard.
