Bandits attempted to attack Ketare town in Malumfashi LGA, Katsina State, last night but were repelled after a prolonged gun battle with vigilantes and CJTF personnel.

‎Security expert Bakatsine while posting on X on Monday morning, said at least seven defenders, including two CJTF personnel, were reportedly killed in the attack.

‎“Behind every casualty is a family that won’t be the same again — children who have lost fathers, and a community forced to grieve while living under the constant shadow of violence,” a security source said.

‎The source added that no community should have to endure this cycle of fear and loss.
