At least 15 suspected militants were killed by airstrikes near the the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Tuesday.

The airstrikes were carried out in Khyber region's Rajgal area, Dawn online reported.

The militants included at least two suicide bombers, the ISPR said.

The airstrike is part of the counter-terrorism efforts that are being made under the National Action Plan (NAP) and the ongoing "Zarb-i-Azb" military operation, with both having significantly curbed terror attacks in the country.
