3 killed as activists clash with Pak army
Three activists from a civil rights movement were killed yesterday as they clashed with the Pakistani troops in a restive tribal region near the Afghan border, the military said. The Pashtun Protection Movement (PTM) has rattled the military since it burst onto the scene earlier last year with a call to end alleged abuses by security forces targeting ethnic Pashtuns in the restive tribal areas along the border with Afghanistan.
