Informed sources said that an explosive device exploded in the convoy of the security belt commander in the central region of the governorate, Nasser Sheikh Al-Saeedi, while he was passing the public road in the Mudiya district.

The sources indicated that Al-Saeedi, who is considered the most prominent military leader of the Transitional Council, miraculously survived the explosion, while a number of his companions were wounded.

Earlier in the day, violent explosions targeted a military convoy of the Transitional Council factions in the Al-Mahfad district, leaving dead and wounded.
