    The area is among those affected by banditry attacks and is under operation.

    The multi agency teams are conducting operations in the area as part of efforts to degrade attacks and counter attacks.

    Dozens of firearms have been recovered in the operations but this has not stopped attacks from gunmen who are targeting livestock from various places and retaliations.

    Military joined the operations to enhance it.
