IndiaTimes Sunday, 23 June 2024
Two personnel from CRPF's elite CoBRA unit were killed in a Maoist IED explosion in Sukma, resulting in a powerful blast that caused casualties and destruction. The blast was so powerful that it blew a crater around 40ft long and 30ft wide and hurled the truck - in which the personnel were travelling - several feet in the air. It landed upside down with its driver's cabin obliterated.
