According to sources, “the IED was found at the edge of the town’s exit gate,” raising concerns about possible threats to civilians and security personnel using the route.

The EOD team later carried out a controlled detonation of the device without incident. After the operation, the area was carefully scanned to ensure no other explosives were present.

Preliminary findings indicate that the device may have been planted by insurgents before troops were deployed to the location.
