OPERATION HADIN KAI: CASUALTY AS TROOPS DECISIVELY HIT BH/ISWAP TERRORISTS IN BUNI YADI.{PHOTOS}.#PRESS RELEASE

Troops of Sector 2 Joint Task Force, North East(NE), Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK) have again inflicted casualty on Boko Haram(BH) and Islamic State's West Africa Province (ISWAP) terrorists in a fierce battle that ensued in  Buni Yadi in Gujba Local Government Area of Yobe State on Tuesday 30 November 2021. 


The terrorists, who frantically attempted to gain access into Buni Yadi, mounted on gun trucks, met stiff resistance from troops of 27 Task Force Brigade and Nigerian Army Special Forces School, supported by the Nigerian Air Force Component  and personnel of the Nigerian Police, who gallantly fought and  overwhelmed the terrorists with superior firepower. 


The ferrocious battle forced the criminals to  withdraw in different directions having suffered heavy losses. Several gun trucks with their occupants were taken out by the troops. Preliminary battle damage assessment revealed the precision with which Air and Land troops engaged the terrorists destroying their gun trucks. Exploitation is still ongoing by troops to  take out fleeing remnants of the terrorists.


Commending troops for this operational exploit, the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya charged them to sustain the current operational tempo to deny the criminals freedom of action.
