Incident

On September 2, 2018, a car bomb was set off near a government office after being stopped at a checkpoint by military personnel,[3] killing at least 6 people including the 3 soldiers present and injuring 14 other people.[1] It also caused a nearby school to collapse, damaged nearby houses, and blew the roof off a mosque,[1] as well as destroying the targeted building.[4]
