Two traders injured as gunmen attack vehicles in Jonglei
Two traders were wounded on the outskirts of Uror County of Jonglei State when gunmen attacked three commercial vehicles on Wednesday, the county commissioner and police said.
“Those traders left the county headquarters, Yuai for Juba to get goods before the Uror-Bor road is cut off by the rains. After reaching Gadiang, some armed bandits attacked them and sprayed bullets on three vehicles, injuring two traders,” Tang Chatim, the commissioner of Uror County, told Radio Tamazuj on Friday.
Separately, Commissioner Chatim said: “Also, on the same day in the evening, Koat cattle camp in Pieri Payam was attacked. 79 cows were stolen but no one was killed. I appeal to my Pibor counterparts to recover the stolen animals.”
