Following her critical injury, her relatives tried to save her and the unborn baby by admitting her to Buthidaung general hospital. Unfortunately, the baby’s life could not be saved due to severe critical injury in the fetus.
Earlier on 18th April, another Rohingya man was killed in an anti-personnel landmine explosion in Buthidaung Township.
