Two militants were killed on Tuesday in a security raid in Bangladesh’s Chapainawabganj district, a police official said.

“The militants were most likely killed in suicide explosions causing a fire in a house where they were hiding,” the official told Xinhua.

He said security forces surrounded the house suspecting it to be a militant hideout.

At least three people, including owner of the house, were detained.
