By: Zagazola Makama
Troops of Operation Hadin Kai, in collaboration with the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), have killed three terrorists during an ambush operation between Ngazalgana and Lamusheri communities in Borno.
Sources told Zagazola Makama that the operation followed credible intelligence on the movement of insurgents in the area.
“The troops laid an ambush along the identified route and engaged the terrorists with heavy gunfire. Three of the insurgents were neutralised, while others escaped with gunshot injuries,” the source said.
He added that two AK-47 rifles were recovered from the scene of the encounter.
The source said the operation was part of sustained efforts to deny terrorists freedom of movement and degrade their operational capabilities across the North-East.
He reaffirmed the commitment of Operation Hadin Kai, working with local security volunteers, to continue intelligence-led operations to protect communities and restore lasting peace in the region.
