TEHRAN, June 05 - A Pakistani police official said two suicide bombers tried to storm a security post in the southwestern town of Mastung, killing three officers and wounding two in an attack that was claimed by Daesh terrorist group.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Police official Wali Mohammad said the attackers tried to push their way into the Frontier Corps' post. One detonated his explosives when the officers asked them to stop. He says the second attacker was killed by a sharpshooter, AP reported.
A statement posted on a Daesh-affiliated website says two of its "martyrdom seekers" were behind the attack.
Mastung lies about 50 kilometers, or 30 miles, south of Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan province, AP reported.
Baluchistan has also been the scene of a low-level insurgency by separatist groups that demand a greater share of the province's resources.
