The Nigerian Army's Operation Hadin Kai and the Multinational Joint Task Force have successfully neutralized at least 10 Boko Haram and Islamic State's West Africa Province (ISWAP) terrorists in a fierce gun battle along the Nigeria-Cameroon border.
The operation was strategically designed to flush out BH/ISWAP remnants from their hideouts in the Lake Chad Basin. The troops engaged the terrorists in a fierce gun battle, resulting in the neutralization of at least 10 terrorists.
Director of Defence Media Operations, Major General Markus Kangye, lauded the Army's success, emphasizing their resolve to eliminate terrorist remnants.
He said, “The encounter occurred during a combined operation strategically designed and executed to flush out remnants of BH/ISAWP terrorists operating within the border communities.
“The troops, acting on credible intelligence, masterfully stormed the terrorists’ hideout between Rann and Gamboru, resulting in an intense gun battle, where 10 terrorists met their Waterloo, as a result of the superior firepower of the gallant troops.
“After the firefight, a huge cache of arms and ammunition was recovered from the scene, including some quantity of anti-aircraft ammunition.
“The operation was part of a broader strategy to dominate the Southern Lake Chad axis and prevent cross-border movement of BH/ISWAP terrorists”
He reassured Nigerians in the northeast that the Armed Forces of Nigeria, in collaboration with the MNJTF, Hybrid Forces and other security agencies, have adopted an operational tempo in the Lake Chad Basin and other parts of Northern Borno to eliminate the remnants of BH/ISWAP in the region.
The operation highlights the military's efforts to secure the Nigeria-Cameroon border and prevent terrorist activities.
