Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A commuter vehicle encountered a roadside improvised explosive device ambush on KARETO Road in the Mobbar Local Government Area of Borno State, Northeast Nigeria.<\/p>\n

The suspected IED is believed to have been laid for troops by the Islamic State of West African Province (ISWAP), to be followed by a gun attack.<\/p>\n

One passenger was killed, and five others sustained varying degrees of injuries while the commuter vehicle was damaged.<\/p>\n

However, troops of 5 Brigade Operation Hadin Kai conducted fighting clearance patrols to the scene and cleared the area before recovering the corpse and injured to Gubio Town.<\/p>\n

Before the recovery of the victims of the ambush, troops exchanged gunfire with the terrorists lurking behind the scene.<\/p>\n

Casualties are unascertained as the terrorist fled the scene on one xGT and several motorcycles.<\/p>\n
