The Nigerian Army reported that the operation was initiated based on intelligence regarding the movement of suspected terrorists in Madaci Forest, located in Sabuwa Local Government Area.
The military's swift action created "confusion in the enemy camp," facilitating the rescue of the victims, which also included three other minors and young adults from Danja and Funtua Local Government Areas. Following their rescue, the victims were handed over to Hon. Abubakar Musa, the Chairman of Bakori Local Government Area, for reunification with their families.
