Two BSF jawans lost their lives in an IED blast near BSF sector headquarters Koirengi campus in Manipur's Imphal on Wednesday afternoon. No militant claimed responsibility for the attack.
A senior official told PTI that the blast triggered by an improvised explosive device (IED) occurred around 2pm, when the BSF men were deployed just outside the gate of their Koirengi sector headquarters camp, on the Dimapur-Imphal highway in Imphal. The two jawans, both of constable rank, received splinter injuries in the blast and later succumbed.
