Sui airport building razed in pre-dawn attack

An explosion and a pre-dawn rocket attack on Sunday destroyed the airport at Sui, police and security officials said.
A security official said that the assailants apparently planted dynamite sticks around the wall of the small two-room facility which collapsed when the device exploded during the rocket barrage.
The paramilitary Frontier Corps soldiers responded but there were no casualties, the official said.
Local police officer Khan Mohammad Buzdar said the airport building and its departure lounge were badly damaged, but there was no damage to the runway. "More than 20 rockets crashed into the airport building," Buzdar told AFP by telephone from Sui.
He said the attackers lobbed rockets and also opened fire with kalashnikov assault rifles and machine-guns. No arrests had been made, he said.
The attack was the second in the area within two days when unidentified assailants had fired more than a dozen rockets on Friday.
