Unknown gunmen killed six civilians in Pakistan's southwestern Baluchistan province today, officials said.
Local administrator Mohammad Younus of Baluchistan's Panjgur district said gunmen killed six people from the same family in an isolated house.
The victims include a father, his two sons and two female relatives, said Younus, adding that the motive for the killings was still under investigation.
Baluchistan is the scene of an ongoing low-intensity insurgency by Baluch separatist groups, and Islamic militants also operate in the area.
