Dec 1 (Reuters) - Following are security developments in Pakistan at 1456 GMT on Wednesday.

TURBAT - Three soldiers and five Baluch rebels were killed in a clash after militants ambushed a paramilitary patrol in southwestern Baluchistan, a regional military spokesman said.

Separately, a roadside bomb killed one soldier and wounded three in Kalat town in the province.

Nationalists have been fighting for decades for greater provincial autonomy and a bigger share in revenues from Baluchistan's natural resources.
