Anglophone Crisis: 11 Separatists Captured In Babadjou After a Failed Mission

By M.K

At least 11 separatist fighters have been captured by members of the Cameroonian defense force in Babadjou, West Region of Cameroon.

This comes after the fighters attempted to launch an attack in the town, MMI has learned.

In the very early hours of Tuesday June 28, 2022, the group of Separatist Fighters is believed to have invaded the West Region.

“Frightened civilians were awoke by sounds of heavy gunshots as the Separatists allegedly made their way to the Babadjou Gendarmerie post,” narrated a source.

The fighters were met with stiff resistance from the Gendarmes, who were tipped off.

“The Separatists were quickly supressed by the forces, and 11 of them were captured alive in the process.”

Several weapons, including guns were seized from the fighters.

They are also being detained pending investigations.

This failed attempt by Separatists comes barely three weeks after dreaded Ambazonian self-styled General “No Pity” attacked a Gendarmerie post in the West and killed over half a dozen elements.
