The troops of Operation Hadarain Daji, OPHD, have attacked terrorists in Sokoto State through a series of synchronised clearing and offensive operations.
Captain Ibrahim Yahaya, the spokesman for the OPHD task force, said that a multi-hour gunfight resulted from the offensive clearance operation that happened on December 14, 2023, at Bauni hamlet and Bauni woodland.
According to the statement:
“Troops’ aggressiveness and firepower superiority forced the terrorists to abandon their hideouts and flee in disarray, leading to the rescue of six kidnapped victims.
“Three terrorists were neutralised and two AK-47 rifles were recovered, as well as 19 magazines, ammunition, two Dane guns, motorcycles, radios (walkie-talkies), and other items.
“All terrorist enclaves discovered and recovered motorcycles were destroyed instantly during the operation.”
