Troops of Operation HADIN KAI have successfully ambushed and killed at least seven suspected Boko Haram terrorists along the Mayanti Road in Dar El-Jamal, Borno State. 


According to reports, the ambush, which took place on Tuesday evening, led to the recovery of several bicycles with logistics items used by the terrorists.


In a suspected retaliatory attack, insurgents stormed the Dar El-Jamal resettled village around 7:30pm the same day, shooting sporadically, but a combined team of Nigerian Army troops, Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), and local hunters quickly responded, repelling the assault, forcing the attackers to retreat in disarray.


This recent operation is part of the ongoing efforts by Operation HADIN KAI to combat Boko Haram insurgency in Borno State, as the military has been conducting a series of coordinated offensive operations, including ambushes, fighting patrols, and clearance missions, with the support of the Civilian Joint Task Force and local hunters.
