Security forces prevent a terrorist attack at Tor Donga Yam Market in Benue State. According to multiple Nigerian outlets, troops from Operation Whirl Stroke (OPWS) act in collaboration with operatives of the Benue State Civil Protection Guard. The reports say the attackers engage in a gun battle with the troops, and the forces neutralise two suspected terrorists. One outlet identifies the suspects as Dantaraba and Golozo, while other reports describe the two suspects without naming them.
All accounts state that, after the clash, the troops recover weapons and ammunition linked to the attackers at the market site. The incidents are described as occurring at the yam market in Benue State, and the information is attributed to security-related communication shared publicly online in at least one report.
While the reports agree on the location, the involvement of OPWS and the civil protection guard, the outcome for two suspected attackers, and the recovery of arms and ammunition, they provide no further details on casualties beyond the neutralisation of the suspects or on the attackers’ broader intent.
