The attack killed a soldier and injured three others, some houses were also damaged and electric supply was also cut off to the residential quarters.

An 11-ft-long portion of the pipeline blew up and gas supply to the plant stopped.

The power plant has been closed down.

The technical staff of the gas company has started the repair work and hopefully the supply would be restored by the evening.

We have cleared the mines in many areas, but they keep adding them.

The situation is very tense.

It is an act of sabotage.

These people set the weapons on fire because they are retreating toward the mountains and they want to eliminate all evidence of keeping arms.

I confirm that 12 terrorists were killed by our forces, and some others managed to escape.
