The troops of Operation Fansan Yanma have reportedly rescued 50 kidnap victims after foiling a bandit attack on Raudama village in Faskari LGA.
According to Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency publication focused on the Lake-chad region, the incident occurred on April 27 when suspected bandits invaded Raudama village.
The publication said troops also “recovered 32 rustled cows” during the operation.
