The joint operation led to the recovery and destruction of two IED bombs, aimed at targeting police forces.

These IEDs, weighing 10 KG and 5 KG, were strategically planted in the forested and hilly regions between Patatorab and Chidiyabeda villages under Tonto police station.

The bomb disposal squad was promptly deployed, ensuring the safe detonation of these devices on site.
