An illegal miner, locally known as a galamseyer, has rained curses on some military personnel who stormed his mining site and destroyed machinery and equipment.

In a video shared on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, the miner invoked the curses using Jeremiah 15:1-3, accusing the military team of unfairly targeting only his site out of ten others in the area.
