"Everyone was sleeping at the time. The shells fell near their house. The pieces of shells hit them and three members died on the spot. Some cattle were also killed and injured. Their son is working in Malaysia. As the firing started two other next door families succesfully ran to enter in bomb shelters. But the three-member family was not lucky,” he added.
