Four terrorists belonging to the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan were executed in Pakistan's Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa on Thursday, officials said.

This was the second consecutive day when militants belonging to the group were hanged.

The militants were tried by military courts and convicted for their involvement in acts of terrorism, including an attack on Saidu Sharif airport, killing innocent civilians, attacks on law enforcement agencies and armed forces, a statement issued by Inter-Services Public Relations said.
