Troops of Operation Hadin Kai, alongside other security agencies, have successfully repelled an attack by suspected Boko Haram terrorists in Mayo Ladde village, Adamawa State.
The incident occurred around 9pm on Friday, with the terrorists attempting to attack the border settlement connecting Askira/Uba Local Government Area and Sambisa Forest in Borno State.
Thanks to swift action by troops and the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), the attackers were decisively engaged and forced to retreat.
No casualties were reported, as residents had evacuated the area beforehand.
Meanwhile, security forces have increased patrols and surveillance to prevent future attacks and restrict terrorist movement.
However, Operation Hadin Kai reiterated its commitment to protecting lives and property in the North-East region through sustained offensive operations against Boko Haram and ISWAP fighters.
