JAMRUD - Troops killed 11 militants, while four vehicles, including one laden with explosives, were destroyed in the Khyber Pass region on Saturday. One soldier was also killed, a paramilitary Frontier Corps spokesman said. The previous day, soldiers backed by helicopter gunships killed 27 militants in the same region, the spokesman said.
