The statement issued by the Togolese government further revealed that a group of unidentified insurgents attacked a military post in the Ponzal area on the Togo border at about 3 o’clock that day, killing eight security forces and injuring 13 others,

It was also stated that about 60 insurgents from Burkina Faso confronted the post and exchanged fire with soldiers of the security forces. The crossfire persisted for two hours. In addition to casualties, the attack left an armoured vehicle and a jeep on fire.
