Nigerian Military Neutralises Three Terrorists in Kaduna

On October 30, troops of the Nigerian military neutralised three suspected terrorists in Kaduna State during an operation conducted by the Joint Task Force North West, specifically Operation Fansan Yamma. The operation took place on Thursday when troops from Sector 1 were conducting a fighting patrol along the Shadow–Old Kuyello Road in Birnin Gwari Local Government Area.

They came under attack from armed terrorists but responded with superior firepower, repelling the attack and pursuing the fleeing assailants. This led to the neutralisation of three suspected terrorists and the recovery of an AK-47 rifle, one magazine, three rounds of ammunition, and a motorcycle.

Additionally, in a separate operation in Kano State, the troops rescued 28 cows and 13 sheep from suspected cattle rustlers. No troops were reported killed during the encounter.
