One man was critically injured and another missing after reportedly being ambushed by a group of armed men in Papua’s Mulia district on Thursday, the latest attack against civilians in the province.
The victims, both motorcycle taxi drivers, were returning to Mulia city from an outlying area when they were jumped by a group of around 10 men who opened fire on them.
One of the drivers, Yondri, was shot in the neck. The other managed to escape, although it was unknown if he suffered any injuries.
The attackers fled when a joint police-military patrol rushed to the scene after hearing the gunshots. Yondri was rushed to hospital, where he remains in critical condition.
The incident is the latest attack by unknown assailants on civilians in Papua. On Jan. 5, two people were killed in similar circumstances in Puncak district.
