One person shot during anti-illegal mining operation in Kyebi

The security team, believed to be from the National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat NAIMOS, was conducting an operation at a mining site. Reports indicate that a group of youth involved in mining activities blocked an access road to prevent the security personnel from entering. The youth accused the security team of selective enforcement, alleging that other mining locations were bypassed before their site was targeted.

The injured individual is receiving treatment at Kibi Government Hospital.
