Militants Kill At Least 10 In Police Station Raid

Updated

Pakistani security officials say militants have attacked a police station in northwest Pakistan, killing at least four police officers.

The attack on June 25 targeted a police station in the Kolachi area of the Dera Ismail Khan district, just outside Pakistan's tribal region.

Pakistan's Taliban claimed responsibility for the raid, with a spokesman, Ahsanullah Ahsan, saying the attack was partly aimed at avenging the U.S. operation that killed Osama bin Laden.
