Gwadar : Gunmen stormed a checkpoint of Coast Guards near the port of city of Gawadar and shot dead at least eight soldiers, three others have been injured. According to details unknown motorcyclists have attacked a check post, with rocket launchers and other automatic weapons, of Pakistan Coast Gaurds in Pishokaan area of Gawadar town in Balochistan early Saturday morning. As a result of the apparently pre-planned attacked eight soldiers were killed and at least three others have been wounded. The wounded and dead have reportedly been shifted to civil hospital Gawadar. The injured are stated to be in critical condition. The attackers have successfully escaped on motor bikes after the attack. The Pakistani security forces have laid a siege in surrounding areas and started a search for the attackers. No arrests have been made until the filing of this report. No groups immediately claimed responsibility for the attack. However, in the past Baloch resistance organisations, fighting for independence of Balochistan, have accepted responsibility for attacks on Pakistani security forces in Coastal areas and across Balochistan.
