A senior security official said on Saturday that the operation was carried out in the city’s impoverished neighborhood of Golimar, where paramilitary forces known as Rangers launched a targeted operation on an intelligence tip-off.
Rangers’ spokesman Major Sibtain Rizvi confirmed that at least four members of Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) were killed during the raid.
“The criminals opened indiscriminate fire on the Rangers, prompting the force to fire back which killed four notorious BLA terrorists,” Rizvi said.
The top official added that at least six militants were also arrested during the operation.
Security forces reportedly managed to seize a large amount of arms and ammunition from the militants.
According to Pakistani intelligence officials, the militants were involved in subversive activities, including targeted bombings and killings across the country.
