Terrorists of the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) stormed Buni Gari town of Gujba local government area of Yobe State around 12 midnight on Friday.

The attack occurred two days after the meeting of the North East Governors’ Forum in Damaturu where the governors deliberated on security issues, poverty and poor road network in the region.

A source from the security agencies confirmed the incident, disclosing that the insurgents touched a part of 27 Brigade Tactical Headquarters in Buni Gari.

Buni Gari is less than seven kilometres from Buni Yadi where the Nigerian Army Special Forces School was located.

Some residents of the community told LEADERSHIP that the insurgents fired gunshots sporadically before proceeding to burn the military facility and some buildings belonging to the people of the area.

Our correspondent gathered that the troops of Operation HADIN KAI engaged in an intense gun battle with the terrorists following the attack on Buni Gari.

The Nigerian Army confirmed the development through a brief statement on its social media platforms on Saturday.

“The troops of Operation HADIN KAI currently in a fierce battle against ISWAP attack at Buni Gari, Yobe State,” the Army announced.

However, an intelligence source said the terrorists were swiftly engaged by the troops in collaboration with hunters and vigilantes who engaged them in heavy gun battle lasting over an hours before the insurgents were overpowered.

As of the time of filling this report, further details surrounding the attack and potential casualties remain undisclosed.
