The Nigerian Army stated this in a statement on its social media handle on Wednesday.

The statement said troops on 17 September 2024, acting on credible intelligence, intercepted terrorists attempting to cross from Alawa Forest in Niger State to Birnin Gwari in Kaduna State.

Troops who lay in ambush engaged terrorists in a fierce firefight, resulting in the elimination of two terrorists, while others managed to flee.

Troops recovered two AK-47 rifles, two magazines, and three motorcycles at the scene.

In another operation, troops also acting on intelligence about the movement of terrorists at Hayin Nakwakina village in Giwa local government area of Kaduna State laid in an ambush against the terrorists and killed two of them.

Troops also recovered two motorcycles, a mobile phone, and machetes abandoned by the fleeing terrorists.

Similarly, troops responding to a distress call on Tuesday, 17 September 2024, rescued 20 kidnap hostages who were abducted by marauding terrorists along the Kwaga-Pole wire axis of Birnin Gwari local government area of Kaduna State.

“The troops successfully rescued the abductees after a shootout that overwhelmed the terrorists, compelling them to succumb and run for their lives,” it said.

The statement said the rescued hostages have been reunited with their families.

The Nigerian Army appreciates the continued support and cooperation of the public in providing credible information to the troops. We remain committed to decisively curbing all acts of terrorism, insurgency, and economic sabotage in the country.
