The Improvised Explosive Device went off in the forest near Tadmetla village when a team of security forces was out on an anti-naxal operation, Inspector General of Police (Bastar range) Sundarraj P said.

“At least five personnel belonging to CoBRA’s 206th battalion sustained injuries in the blast,” he said.

“The injured are being evacuated from the forest,” he added.

A CRPF official said that one of the five personnel had suffered critical injuries.
