According to the Deputy Minister, the Ghana Armed Forces immediately activated a rescue operation.

The Ghana Air Force deployed surveillance aircraft, while the Eastern and Western Naval Commands joined the operation to comb the area.

“The first important thing was to rescue the people,” he stressed, adding that security agencies are maintaining surveillance in the area.

Although no arrests have been made so far, Mr. Brogya Genfi assured that investigations are ongoing. He indicated that the timing of the attack and the swift response by security agencies are key factors guiding the continuing operation.
