Armed terrorists militants operating a fake checkpoint in northwest Tunisia killed four people and wounded four others early on Sunday, the Interior Ministry said.
Authorities said four terrorists men blocked the road near Jendouba, just 50 kilometres from the Algerian border. They stopped a vehicle and killed two of its occupants, including a prison guard, and wounded two others.
When a patrol of National Guard approached the road block around 1am, the group of four terrorists militants opened fire, killing two and wounding another two before escaping, the ministry statement said.
TunisiaÂ’s Shems FM radio said the terrorists militants were disguised as members of the security forces. |
