A bus traveling from Bawku to Bolgatanga under military escort came under attack by unidentified gunmen at Bazua in the Binduri district on Monday afternoon. While it remains unclear whether there were casualties from the shooting, the chaos led to a tragic incident where a man was run over and killed by a speeding military patrol vehicle rushing to the scene as backup.
This attack follows a disturbing incident on Sunday in Bawku, where a woman and her two daughters were killed in the early hours of the morning. These violent events have sparked concerns about rising tensions in the already volatile Upper East Region.
