Troops of Operation Hadin Kai have rescued five children who escaped from Boko Haram terrorist enclaves in Borno State, following intensified military operations against insurgent hideouts.
Counter-insurgency expert Zagazola Makama disclosed the development in a post on X, noting that the rescues took place on June 4 during clearance patrols in the North-East theatre.
According to Makama, soldiers of the 82 Division Task Force Battalion rescued two girls, Aisha Idrisa (13) and Fatima Abubakar (11), near Amuda in Gwoza Local Government Area.
The girls, abducted in 2025 from Pulka community, fled captivity after sustained bombardments forced insurgents to abandon their positions.
They have since been reunited with their families at the Pulka IDP Camp.In a related operation, three other girls, Wuriya Kaka (12), Fauza Abu (13), and Hussaina Usman (13) escaped from Guduf Nagadayo in the Mandara Mountains and surrendered to troops of the 26 Task Force Brigade in Gwoza.
They are currently undergoing screening and profiling in line with military protocols.Makama emphasized that the rescues highlight the impact of ongoing military pressure on insurgent strongholds, which continues to create opportunities for captives to regain freedom.
