At least 3 people were killed in a remote-controlled land mine blast targeting a military convoy carrying Ethiopian troops of AMISOM contingent in Somalia on Saturday.
A witness who declined to be named, told South West Based Independent Station IdaleNews.com the IED struck the AU troop’s convoy as it passed Rabdhure town, heading to Hudur, the provincial capital of Bakool.
According to the eyewitness account, the Ethiopian military convoy missed the IED by a whisker then the AMISOM soldiers opened fire on nearby residents, killing at least 2 civilians.
No group has yet claimed credit of the attack on Ethiopian army convoy, though such roadside attacks are linked to Al Shabaab who target SNA as well as other AMISOM forces in Somalia.
