The convoy of army and paramilitary troops was attacked in Swat, a mountainous area of North West Frontier Province bordering Afghanistan, police officer Humayun Khan said.
Troops opened fire after the attack and a gun battle was continuing, he said.
Army spokesman Maj. Gen. Waheed Arshad in Islamabad could not confirm a suicide bomber was involved, saying the convoy may have been struck by a roadside bomb.
