TROOP DISMANTLE TERRORISTS' STRONGHOLD, SEIZE WEAPONS IN TARABA COMMUNITIES
Troops of 6 Brigade/Sector 3 Operation Whirl Stroke carried out a coordinated operation to eradicate terrorist strongholds in remote areas of Taraba State. As a result, they successfully dismantled terrorist hideouts in Rugga, Sarti and Yade communities, recovering arms and ammunition.
During an aggressive patrol by the troops of 93 Battalion Sub-Sector 3B OPWS, they made contact with terrorists who fled their base in the face of the troops' overwhelming firepower. A thorough search of the hideout resulted in the seizure of one AK-47 rifle, a magazine containing seven rounds of 7.6mm X39mm ball ammunition and one cartridge. In addition, a knife and two mobile phones belonging to the terrorists were also confiscated.
The troops are in pursuit of the terrorists to dismantle all criminal hideouts and ensure the area remains uninhabitable for unlawful activities.
