A mine believed to have been planted by Boko Haram terrorists has killed four Chadian soldiers, according to a report in the capital N’Djamena yesterday.
About 12 other soldiers were wounded.
The mine destroyed an army vehicle in which the soldiers were travelling at Kaiga Kindji, close to the border of Chad and Niger.
The Friday incident is the latest in the series of attacks on Chadian soldiers by Boko Haram extremists.
