Soldiers Kill Three Suicide Bombers, Escorts In Borno

Troops of Operation Hadin Kai have neutralised three Boko Haram suicide bombers and their escorts along the Guduf–Pulka axis in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State.

The Media Information Officer, Joint Task Force Northeast operation Hadin Kai, Lt Col Sani Uba, who disclosed this in a statement on Thursday, said the suicide bombers were dispatched from the Mandara Mountains by the Ali Ngulde-led Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati wal-Jihad faction of Boko Haram terrorists.

The statement noted that the operation, executed through covert intelligence efforts by troops in collaboration with local volunteer forces, led to the tracking and neutralisation of the suicide bombers before they could carry out planned attacks on innocent civilians.
