Four terrorists and one soldier were killed in a clash on Wednesday at Panjgur and Nushki districts of Pakistan's Balochistan province, according to local media reports.

"Terrorists attempted to attack security forces' camps in Balochistan's Panjgur and Noshki in two separate attacks late on Wednesday evening," Dawn quoted Pakistan military's media wing Inter-Services Public Relation (ISPR) as saying. "Both attacks have been successfully repulsed while inflicting heavy casualties to terrorists." 

Terrorists tried to enter a security forces' camp in Panjgur from two locations. During intense exchange of fire one soldier was killed, according to ISPR.

"Terrorists attempted to enter a Frontier Corps (FC) camp in Noshki which was "promptly responded", four terrorists have been killed," said the ISPR.

The clash came near a week after the ten soldiers were killed in Balochistan in a terrorist attack on a security forces' check post in the province's Kech district.

After the killing of the soldiers, Pakistan's Chief of the Army Staff (COAS) Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa had also paid a visit to a city in southern Balochistan amid the worrying security situation in the province.
