Troops under Operation Whirl Stroke (OPWS) have successfully thwarted a bandits attack in Jen village, located in Karim Lamido Local Government Area of Taraba State.
The operation was carried out on Sunday afternoon following a swift response to a distress call from the area.
According to a report shared by security analyst Zagazola Makama via his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, the troops were alerted at about 3:30 p.m., prompting immediate deployment to the threatened location.

This proactive operation highlights the continued effectiveness of security forces in combating criminal activities in Taraba and surrounding regions.
