One dies, 7 injured in Boko Haram Tussle

Defence Headquarters this evening released a
statement on how they foiled another Boko Haram
attack on Bama, Borno state today, March 21st.
Sadly one soldier died while 7 others got injured during
the attack.
They have been evacuated from the combat area by air
and are already receiving medical attention. Many of the
terrorists were killed.
A Hilux vehicle, other terrorist equipments and some
weapons were captured from the attackers.
Pursuit is still ongoing while calm has been restored and
troops maintain firm control of Bama town.
With most of the towns slated to be cleared of
terrorists already covered, the campaign to rid the rest
of the communities of these militants is continuing with
air and land operations now stepped up in the remaining
designated locations in the mission area.
Cordon and search of cleared communities are also
ongoing with some discoveries of weapons and vestiges
of atrocities committed by the terrorists while they held
sway in some locations.
