Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>At least two people have been killed and 11 others have been wounded after unknown gunmen attacked a bus traveling along Juba-Nimule highway, officials say.<\/p>\n

A health official said three of those wounded are women and were receiving treatment at Juba Teaching Hospital.<\/p>\n

\u201cA number of causalities were brought to the hospital, according to a report given to me, two people are dead and then we have 11 getting treatment in the hospital with minor injures except one who is admitted to the ward,\u201d Dr. Anthony Lupai is quoted by Eye Radio as saying.<\/p>\n

A survivor said the attackers used AK-47.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a big ambush, we were traveling in 2 Bongo buses and many other vehicles, the attackers used rifles like Ak-47, PKM, and other automatic rifles,\u201d a survivor said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey fired at the vehicle until it overturned, injuring several of its passengers. I was left in the vehicle because I\u2019m sick and can\u2019t see well, so people scattered into the nearby bushes and I stayed inside the car with the wounded and others feared dead,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Police spokesman Daniel Justin said: \u201cWe can confirm the attack and our forces are rushing there to contain the situation. We haven\u2019t got the full details of the attack, give us some time, and then we\u2019ll tell you.\u201d<\/p>\n
