At least two people were killed on Monday (5 February) afternoon after heavy mortar shells fired from Myanmar landed and exploded inside Bangladesh on the Ghumdum border in Bandarban.
The explosion occurred around 2:20 pm when a shell hit an under-construction house located in Jolpaichari village of Bandarban's Naikhongchhari upazila.
The deceased were identified as the house owner, Hosneara Begum, and a Rohingya labourer who was working on-site.
The Rohingya man died on the spot, and Hosneara Begum breathed her last while she was being taken to the hospital, Ghumdum union parishad Chairman AKM Jahangir Aziz said.
