The troops of 3 Division/Operation SAFE HAVEN conducted an intelligence-based raid operation at bandits’ hideout at Teng Village in Qua'an Pan Local Government Area of Plateau State.
During the operation in the early hours of 23 May 2025, troops made contact, overwhelmed the criminals and forced them to retreat in disarray. However, one bandit was neutralised during the exchange of gunfire, while traces of blood along their withdrawal routes indicate that some of the fleeing bandits sustained massive gunshot wounds.

Samson Zhakom said the troops exploited the hideout and recovered one AK-47 rifle, one AK-47 magazine and 11 rounds of 7.62 mm (Special) ammunition. The recovered arms and ammunition are in the custody of troops for further action. Meanwhile, troops are in pursuit of the fleeing criminals.
Troops of 3 Division/Operation SAFE HAVEN have continued to demonstrate impeccable service in the Joint Operations Area, and are motivated to continue the fight against non-state actors whose obnoxious activities must be obstructed by every means possible.
