*QUETTA - At least six security officials were martyred Friday when their convoy came under attack by unidentified gunmen in Balochistan’s Kech district, officials said.*

“Six FC [Frontier Corps] men embraced martyrdom while 14 others were wounded in the gun attack,” Balochistan Information Minister Zahoor Buledi told AFP.
