A Pakistan counter-terrorism unit on Sunday shot down three terrorists during an exchange of fire in Lahore.

Punjab province's Counter-Terrorism Department killed three alleged terrorists, who were planning attacks on sensitive installations and departments, ARY News reported.

The department's spokesperson said that a raid was conducted by the Lahore CTD in the Ferozewala area where the three alleged terrorists rented a house.

"The three deceased terrorism suspects are Ehsan Ullah, Naimat Ullah and Abdul Salam and were shot dead during an operation conducted after a coordinated information and intelligence gathering," said the department's spokesperson.

In another incident from Sindh, a former Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader was killed in Karachi the last night.
