TORIT BLAST DEATH TOLL RISES TO 3
Thursday, 30 May 2013 14:41 |
Thursday’s Torit blast death toll at Enyif residential area of Torit
County reached to three.

One of the three children who had survived died on Friday, a day after
the blast, while another battles life without a leg, Emmanuel Radio
reported.

Torit Hospital administrator Abwoch James confirmed the report of the
death of the third victim of the explosion after admission to the
emergency unit at the state hospital.

Mr Abwoch said one of children admitted to the hospital was amputated
and is in a stable condition, hoping that both patients positively
respond to medical treatment.

Unexploded ordinance exploded last Thursday at around 3.00 PM, killing
two children and wounding three others.

The deadly explosion happened while the children were playing with bomb.

Eastern Equatoria minister of health, Margaret Itto, regretted the
death of the children saying parents should take precautions against
risky areas with unexploded ordinances.
