A suicide bomber injured two Bangladeshi police officers today (March 17, 2017) when he attacked a base being built for the police anti-terrorist unit, according to the Reuters website.


The Islamic State (IS) terror group claimed responsibility for the attack.


The injured police officers were taken to Dhaka's military hospital.
