Context

This data was extracted from the following paragraph of the newspaper clippings.

Three infant brothers were killed and their father injured by a group of 10 heavily armed terrorists in Surankote, on December 22. According to official sources, the terrorists fired rockets and resorted to indiscriminate firing in with automatic weapons. While a rocket fell inside the Special Operations Group (SOG) headquarters in the town, another exploded at the LG ground used for landing of helicopters. Even as the attention of the SOG and Surankote police was diverted towards the group firing the rockets, two more terrorists forced their entry into the residence of a civilian near the sub district hospital and commenced indiscriminate firing on the inmates. The firing left three children dead and two others--the civilian and a woman, injured official sources added. Presuming all the inmates were dead, the terrorists escaped from the incident-site. No casualties were reported in the rocket attacks and firing on the town, sources said, adding that the Personal Security Officer (PSO) of a Congress (I) leader sustained minor injuries. A total of seven houses were damaged in the rocket attacks and firing.
