According to a security source, after they could not gain access into the town, the attackers fired a mortar bomb into the town killing six people including women and more than 20 people were rushed to the hospital.
Commenting on the incident, a top member of Civilian JTF said members of the agency resisted them and two were seriously wounded when they fired mortar bombs into the town.
