BREAKING: Multiple explosions hit Gombe again, many feared dead​

Three explosions have rocked Gombe, the capital of Gombe state, a week after twin blasts killed 50 people at the city’s central market.

A PREMIUM TIMES correspondent said a high casualty figure was expected in Wednesday’s attack.

The first two explosions occurred at a busy motor park.​
​The blasts, suspected to be from Improvised Explosive Devices worn by suicide bombers, occurred at about 7p.m.
​Our reporter said the ​explosions took place ​minutes apart ​inside Dadin Kowa motor ​park​.​
The third blast occurred nearly two hours after the first attacks, as residents searched through hospitals for their loved ones who may have been affected by the motor parks attacks.
​Last week, explosions by suspected Boko Haram suicide bombers killed 50 people inside the town’s main market last week.
