Troops also recovered 3 machine guns, 2 AK-47 rifles, 11 magazines, 180 rounds od  ammunition and 6 motorcycles used by the terrorists for their nefarious activities.


The operation forms part of ongoing efforts by troops of Operation FANSAN YAMMA to sustain pressure on terrorist networks and dismantle their operational capabilities across the Joint Operations Area. Troops remain resolute in taking the fight to the terrorists, denying them freedom of action and creating conditions for the restoration of lasting peace and security across affected communities.
