At least eight Pakistani security personnel were killed on Sunday and two others injured when militants attacked their vehicle in the country’s restive Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, sources said.

The militants ambushed the vehicle in the Kurram tribal district bordering Afghanistan.

The attack killed eight law enforcement officials and injured two others, according to the sources. A splinter terrorist group of the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) — Jamaat-ul Ahrar — claimed responsibility for the attack.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
