More Terrorists Camps Fall As Many Of Them Die In Sambisa Forest ...
An unconfirmed number of terrorists died on Saturday as 10 additional
camps used by terrorists were overran in the continuing offensive
operations against the terrorists in Sambisa forest. The Dure camp which
is one of the most prominent camps in the forest witnessed the fiercest
battle as the Special Forces descended heavily on it before it finally
fell.
Four of the camps were located in a place called Iza
within the forest while three others were noted to be recently
established by the terrorists before the assault began. One soldier died
from one of the land mine encountered in the operation while two others
were also wounded.
The terrorists lost a number of vehicles mounted with Anti-Aircraft
Guns as well as armoured vehicles. Some of the terrorists who escaped
from the camps also died as they ran into troops ambush in some escape
routes from the forest.
Meanwhile, some of the fleeing terrorists have also engaged in
suicide missions at Bitta where they encountered the Nigerian troops and
Kiskeru across the border in Niger Republic.
The Operation to clear the terrorists in Sambisa and other forests is
continuing as troops in all fronts have been alerted to be on the look
out for fleeing terrorists. The Nigerian Air force is maintaining an
active air surveillance to track the movement of terrorists for
appropriate action as the operation continues.
