The Nigerian Military Artillery have bombed a rendezvous of the Islamic State of the West African Province (ISWAP), killing many of the terrorists in Yobe State. 

 

LEADERSHIP gathered that the insurgents had converged at a location given as Wulle on motorcycles and vehicles with the intention to carry out an attack on the nearest Military formation.

 

An intelligence report obtained by Zagazola Makama, a Counter Insurgency Expert and Security Analyst in the Lake Chad from top military sources, which was made available to our correspondent, indicated that acting on the intelligence, the troops of 27 Task Force Battalion fired several artillery at the terrorists which resulted in the killing of unspecified number of them.

In another development, a member of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) was killed while four others were injured in a midnight raid by the ISWAP terrorists in Benisheik, a village in Kaga local government area of Borno State.

 

Benisheikh is located about 72 km and 44.8 miles to Maiduguri, Borno State capital.

 

It was gathered that the terrorists sneaked into the town on motorcycles at about 3:30am and engaged security men in a heavy gun battle.

 

Another intelligence report obtained by Zagazola Makama said that the terrorists overpowered the security men, killing one of them amd set four patrol vehicles ablaze.

 

The sources said that the terrorists retreated and took to their heels on sighting a reinforcement team of the Nigerian Army.

 

It could be recalled that Makama had raised an alarm that the terrorists were planning to carry out many attacks on soft targets across the country between September and October, 2022.
