In a heart-wrenching scene captured on video, a nurse can be seen desperately trying to save the life of a victim caught in the deadly clash between illegal miners and AngloGold security at Obuasi.

The tragic confrontation, which resulted in over 10 fatalities and several injuries, has left the community in shock.

This incident highlights the deepening crisis of illegal mining activities and the increasing tension between miners and security forces in the region.
