A tragic incident has occurred in the Upper East Region, where gunmen attacked a bus traveling from Bawku to Bolgatanga, resulting in one death and five critical injuries.
The bus was under military escort when it was ambushed by the assailants. However, the accompanying military personnel managed to contain the situation, preventing further casualties.
The injured victims have since been rushed to the Upper East Regional Hospital in Bolgatanga for urgent medical care.

This incident follows another recent attack in which gunmen dressed in military uniforms killed a woman and her two children in their residence.
