In a statement on its verified Facebook page on Wednesday, it said the troops laid an ambush around Kwaga Village for the terrorists and successfully neutralised one of them
According to the post: “The quick reaction of the troops not only prevented a potential attack on innocent citizens in the area but also led to the recovery of two AK-47 rifles with magazines, as well as two motorbikes, even as troops are currently in pursuit of the fleeing terrorists.”
