Thursday, February 26 2026 - Troops of Sector 1 under Operation HADIN KAI, in collaboration with members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), have neutralised four suspected Boko Haram terrorists during an offensive operation in the Shehuri area of Konduga Local Government Area of Borno State.
Security sources told Zagazola Makama that the operation was
carried out at about 9:15 a.m. on February 25 as part of Operation Desert
Sanity IV, a sustained clearance campaign targeting insurgent strongholds in
the North-East.
According to the sources, the troops intercepted and engaged
the suspected terrorists during the operation, leading to a gun battle.
“Following the engagement, exploitation of the area was
conducted and four insurgents were neutralised,” a source said.
Items recovered from the scene included one AKSM automatic
rifle, a pump-action rifle, as well as cartridges and loaded magazines.
The sources added that troops have maintained high morale
and operational effectiveness, with clearance and dominance patrols continuing
across parts of the state to degrade the fighting capability of insurgent
elements.
