According to Sunday PUNCH, the troops stationed at the Forward Operation Base in Faru village were informed by the bandits that Bagabuzu village was about to be attacked.

After the encounter, four bandits were neutralised while others escaped with gunshot wounds. While repelling the attack, the troops recovered one General Purpose Machine Gun, one FN rifle and 123 rounds of special ammunition.”
