Pakistan's navy thwarted an effort by rebels to storm a dockyard in the southern port city of Karachi, a naval spokesman said Tuesday, according to dpa.
About six militants attacked the facility on Saturday night but
marine and army commandoes repulsed the attack at the yard used to
repair warships and submarines.
Two attackers were killed and four captured, the spokesman said.
Taliban spokesman Shahidulah Shahid claimed responsibility for the
attack.
