Here are gruesome pictures of the causalities recorded after stepping on landmines reportedly planted by Boko Haram terrorists in Gwoza local government area of Borno State.

According to reports and a trending video posted online, the troops drove over the land mines around Warabe village barely fifteen kilometers away from Gwoza local government headquarters.

The vehicle, part of a convoy under military escort, veered off the road in an attempt to overtake another vehicle when it hit the device.

Military and civilian militia sources blamed Boko Haram jihadists for planting the mine, underlying the persistent threat to civilians in the remote region.
