The military operation, conducted on July 20, 2026, was part of ongoing efforts to reinforce public order and safeguard private property rights. During the operation, military personnel responded to an alert regarding the irregular occupation of a property.

After verifying the documentation presented by the owner and coordinating with relevant authorities, the military provided security during the execution of the legal procedure. As a result, the property was recovered, and the individuals occupying it without authorization were removed.
