Bandits armed with sophisticated weapons have attacked a joint military base at Nahuta village, in Batsari Local Government Area of Katsina State.
It was gathered that the attack was carried out at about 11:30pm on Sunday.
No life was lost in the attack as officers at the base succeeded in repelling the attack.
The hoodlums, however, destroyed vehicles and some valuables at the military base.
It was gathered that after they were repelled at the military base, the bandits invaded Nahuta town and broke into houses and shops, carting away property and domestic animals worth millions of naira.
Katsina is one of the states suffering from the activities of bandits and kidnappers.
