Khyber: Terrorists attacked a checkpost in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region on Thursday which left three policemen dead, media reports said.

The area's police said terrorists opened fire on the check-post in Tekhta Beg and used explosive material in the attack, after which the police station caught fire. The exchange of fire between the police force and terrorists is still underway, reports Geo News.

Traffic on the  Pak-Afghan Highway was shut after the attack occurred.

Talking to journalists, Jamrud SHO Shah Khalid termed the storm on the police check-post a suicide attack.

"The suicide bomber entered the check-post and blew himself up," Khalid told Geo News.

The SHO added that the police opened fire on the target upon seeing the suicide bomber.
