Troops of 151 Battalion of the Nigerian Army conducting counter-terrorism counter- insurgency operations under the auspices of Operation HADIN KAI in North East Nigeria, have eliminated 8 terrorists in Bula Marwa, just ahead of Siraja village in Borno State.
In the early hours of Sunday, July 28, 2024, the troops bravely engaged the terrorists in a tough gunfight before launching a daylight raid in cooperation with the Hybrid/Civilian Joint Task Force.
An MK rifle, an automatic grenade launcher, and a backpack carrying two terrorist outfits and other items of desert camouflage were also found by the forces, according to an army statement.
Authorities say the troops are still carrying out further exploitation of the general area to smoke out any other terrorists hiding in the general area.
The army in its brief communique assured Nigerians that the soldiers will continue to be undaunted in combating terrorism and insurgency in synergy with sister services and other security agencies in defence of the nation and in protection of the citizens.
