Nigerian army defeats Boko Haram fighters in Borno

Operation Hadin Kai forces of the Nigerian army have successfully neutralized three Boko Haram terrorists in Koibe village, Borno State.

The operation, executed on Tuesday began with the killing of insurgents in a meticulously planned ambush by combined troops of the 81 Task Force Battalion and 24 Task Force Brigade Garrison, supported by HYBRID forces.

Eyewitnesses to the ambush recounted the intensity of the operation.

“I witnessed a fierce gun battle as insurgents clashed with Nigerian troops,” said one eyewitness, who requested anonymity.

“The soldiers acted swiftly and decisively, overpowering the terrorists and securing the area.”

Following the successful operation, Nigerian troops seized bicycles and supplies belonging to the insurgents, dealing a significant blow to their operational capabilities.

This victory comes in the wake of recent tragic events, including the loss of a lieutenant colonel in the Nigerian Army and six troops in a Boko Haram ambush along the Biu-Buni Yadi route, Borno State.
