Militants raided an air force base in northwest Pakistan, prompting a gun battle that left three attackers dead.
The attack on the 10-acre Badaber base outside Peshawar took place early Friday, army officials said.
Security forces responded, killing three of the attackers, Army spokesman Major General Asim Bajwa said in a series of tweets.
It wasn’t immediately clear how many attackers were involved, or whether security forces suffered casualties.
Ambulances lined up outside the base on standy to transport wounded to nearby hospitals. All hospitals in Peshawar are also on standby.
The Pakistani Taliban, known in the country as Tehrik-i-Taliban, claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement.
