 OPERATION FANSAN YAMMA: TROOPS RESCUE 13 KIDNAP VICTIMS, FOIL TERRORIST OPERATIONS IN ZAMFARA


Troops of Joint Task Force, North West  Operation FANSAN YAMMA (JTF NW OPFY) have recorded another major operational success in Zamfara State, rescuing 13 kidnap victims during separate intelligence-led operations in Anka and Kaura Namoda Local Government Areas.


In the first operation, troops of Sector 2 in Bagega responded swiftly to credible intelligence on armed terrorists moving on motorcycles towards Tungan Kudaduku in Anka LGA. Guided by real-time surveillance, the troops pursued and engaged the terrorists with overwhelming firepower, forcing them to abandon their mission and flee. A follow-up search of the area led to the discovery of a makeshift terrorist camp, where five kidnapped civilians were rescued unharmed.


In a separate operation at Ungwan Rogo, Kaura Namoda LGA, troops acted on credible intelligence of terrorist activity in the area. On contact, they engaged the terrorists in a fierce firefight, forcing them to retreat in disarray and abandon their captives. Eight kidnapped victims were rescued, and two vehicles recovered.

All rescued victims have been handed over to the appropriate authorities for further care and support.


Troops continue to dominate the general area, denying terrorists freedom of action and sustaining pressure on criminal elements operating across the theatre.
