OPERATION: "SWIFT ILLNESS"

Compiled by Operator Veteran "BLACKOUT" for immediate dissemination to all Tau-44 operatives.

[SEC=LEVEL 2] MOBILE TASK FORCE OPERATIVES WITH LEVEL 4 SECURITY CLEARANCE MAY REQUEST UNREDACTED INFORMATION DIRECT FROM O4 COUNCIL.

Situation

At approximately 1349 01/05/2024 , Foundation personnel deployed to East Africa to begin construction of a containment facility for an anomalous entity designated SCP-[REDACTED]. The area had been selected due to its remote location and minimal civilian population, ensuring containment and security protocols could be implemented effectively.

However, shortly after our arrival and commencement of construction activities, we encountered significant interference from a local group affiliated with the revolutionary movement led by Kwame Nkrumah. This group had been identified as a potential threat to Foundation operations in the region due to their anti-government stance and opposition to perceived foreign influences.

The interference began with verbal warnings and demands to cease construction, citing the Foundation's associations with the government and accusing us of perpetuating the exploitation of East Africa's resources. Despite attempts at negotiation and explanation, the revolutionary group remained adamant in their opposition.

As tensions escalated, the group resorted to more aggressive tactics, including blockades of construction equipment, sabotage of infrastructure, and threats against Foundation personnel. Despite efforts to maintain a peaceful resolution, the situation deteriorated rapidly, culminating in a violent confrontation between Foundation security personnel and members of the revolutionary group.

Ultimately, due to the escalating hostilities and concerns for the safety of both Foundation personnel and local civilians, construction efforts were temporarily suspended, and a tactical withdrawal was initiated. The revolutionary group's interference has effectively delayed the establishment of the containment facility, posing a significant setback to our containment efforts in the region.

SCP-[REDACTED] is currently [REDACTED] and as time is ~~critical~~critical. The 04 have signed off on a strike package to eliminate Kwame Nkrumah and two of his critical supporters. Tau-44 will be deployed effective immediately.

Background

Kwame Nkrumah, born in 1989, is a notable figure in contemporary African affairs.

Hailing from Angola, he founded the Convention People's Party and played a significant role in Angola's journey to independence.

Rising to prominence swiftly, Nkrumah became known for his advocacy for grassroots movements and community development initiatives working closely IDAP. However, recent years saw him becoming jaded at the rate of progress then later facing criticism for his authoritarian leadership style, Eventually the Party's actions become more and more hostile until a group of loyal supporters armed themselves and engaged in a firefight with local police.

Since then Nkrumah has turned his supporters into soldiers and gained significant leverage over the government. Experts believe he will take full power in a matter of months

Terrain

Angola is Arid, Spheritic trees and intermittent Hill ranges.

The settlements present are shanty and worn and close to one another. It isn't quite claustrophobic but they aren't so far apart that you'll need a scope to sling lead.

In order to stabilise the region we need to eliminate Kwame Nkrumah along with the local IDAP director he provides security to, David Spencer & the spiritual leader of his people and those of the surrounding area Dike Okonkwo.

Additionally we need you to destroy any military equipment, supplies and infrastructure in the area in addition to the IDAP distribution centre and its supplies.

Execution

Spartan and Jager Teams will have full operational Freedom to plan their execution before the operation.
