10 People Injured as Two Blasts Hit Bogota
KABUL: (Middle East Press) At least ten people have been reportedly wounded after two explosions hit different parts of Bogota, the capital of Colombia on Thursday afternoon.
The fire department said that the blasts targeted the offices of the Porvenir pension fund management company in the financial district of Bogota, injuring 10 people.
The health conditions of the 10 people are reported to be stable and out of danger.
Defense Minister Luis Carlos Villegas said the explosions were undoubtedly “terrorist acts,” adding that the government was offering a reward of up to 100 million pesos (about USD 38,000) for information about the perpetrators of the attacks.
Meanwhile, the commander of the Bogota Metropolitan Police, Gen. Humberto Guatibonza, also said investigators were interviewing witnesses and reviewing footage from security cameras in the areas around the site of the two explosions to find out more details of the attacks.
Nobody has claimed responsibility for the attacks yet.
