The
Nigerian Army has continued its relentless operations of destroying all
Boko Haram terrorists remaining camps and enclaves around Alagarno and
Sambisa forests.
On Tuesday, troops of 81 Battalion and 251 Task
Force Battalion patrol team, cleared Boko Haram camps located at Komala,
Dole, Kumshi and Moadori around the fringes of Alagarno forest.
The
troops killed 2 Boko Haram terrorists and captured 2 notorious
terrorists; Mustapha Busuru (50 years old) and Usman Abubakar (56 years)
at Dole village and brought down all Boko Haram terrorist flags hoisted
in the village and destroyed them.
They also recovered 2
Toyota pick up vans, 40 motorcycles, Improvised Explosives Making
Devices (IEDs), stockpile of foodstuffs and fuel dump.
The patrol team also recovered horses and donkeys used for transportation by the terrorists.
In
response to a distress call of an attack by Boko Haram terrorists on
Kuda village along Butuku road, troops of 143 Battalion swung into
action. Unfortunately, the terrorists fled after setting the village on
fire that led to the death of an elderly woman.
The escaped
insurgents regrouped and attempted to cross through Magar bridge but
were overtaken by the Battalion who killed 2 terrorists and wounded
several others.
Three soldiers and four locals sustained
injuries, while the troops recovered one Toyota Buffalo vehicle mounted
with an Anti-Aircraft Gun with registration number 081375, one General
Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG) with registration number 132042, a loaded G3
rifle magazine and 30 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO) ammunition link.
Both military and the wounded civilians are receiving treatment at the unit’s Regimental Aid Post.
