In a recent military operation carried out by the Cameroonian army in the Upper Bayang subdivision of Manyu Division in the South West Region, at least four separatist fighters have been reported dead.
Reports indicate that the separatist fighters were fatally shot during the operation that took place on February 17, which was prompted by cries from the local population following attacks and exploitation by the separatists involved.
The operation, aimed at restoring peace and security in the region, resulted in the elimination of the armed separatist group responsible for terrorizing the area. However, the unfortunate loss of a civilian in the crossfire serves as a stark reminder of the toll that conflict can take on innocent lives.
Despite raid, many individuals still live in fear as some are yet to return to their homes. Note, the incident underscores the ongoing challenges faced in the region due to the separatist conflict, which has caused significant unrest and instability.
