Six ISWAP Fighters Surrender as Troops Rescue Victims

Six suspected ISWAP fighters and their families surrendered to Nigerian troops during ongoing military operations in Borno State. This surrender was confirmed by Lt.

Col. Moham Goni, who stated that the group fled from a terrorist hideout in Guduf Bubayagwa, located in the Mandara Mountain area of Gwoza Local Government.

Concurrently, troops from the 115 Task Force Battalion successfully rescued two kidnapped victims in Askira Uba Local Government Area on July 7. During these operations, troops recovered N1.2 million, believed to be proceeds from criminal activities, along with food supplies intended to support terrorist operations.

Additionally, troops arrested a suspect linked to Boko Haram and ISWAP logistics at a checkpoint in Molai, seizing a large quantity of medical supplies. Despite facing an attack from ISWAP fighters, Nigerian troops managed to repel the assault and regrouped to launch a counter-offensive.

The military operations reflect ongoing efforts to disrupt terrorist activities in the northeast.
