The army’s deployment is being called “Operation Prosper”, and includes searches for property stolen during this week’s violence.

Police managed to retrieve food, fridges, couches, and gadgets.

56 cases of violence, looting, and vandalism have been recorded since the start of the unrest a week ago.
