Multiple explosions and continuous firing were heard as armed men attacked a police station in the southern Pakistani city of Karachi on Friday. Police sealed off traffic on the main road through the city and heavy contingents of security forces, including paramilitary soldiers, had arrived at the scene.
Local media reported that there were between eight and 10 assailants. Murtaza Wahab, a spokesman for the Sindh provincial government, could not provide details.
