Bomb attacks in Mexico

A wave of bomb attacks has hit the Mexican state of Tamaulipas, where police are investigating the mass killing of 72 migrants.



Four devices exploded separately in Tamaulipas in just 24 hours, injuring at least 17 people.



The BBC is reporting that the explosions appeared to target places connected with the probe into the migrant killings.



Police are still searching for a prosecutor involved in the case who has been missing for several days.



The BBC also said three homemade bombs were detonated in the city of Reynosa, on Saturday.



One exploded close to a church where a memorial mass was being held for the migrants, whose bodies were found at a ranch earlier this week.
