24 Terrorists, 7 Soldiers Killed In Borno Military Base Attack

This is even as the military lost two officers and five soldiers in the attack which occurred on Thursday.

Our correspondent gathered that the incident occurred when the terrorists attempted to attack the Rann military base. Comfirming the attack, a military intelligence source who craved anonymity, said: “Two military officers and five soldiers were among the casualties of the crossfire that ensued between the ISWAP fighters and troops of Operation Hadin Kai.

“The armed terrorists stormed the town on several gun trucks and engaged the military in a gun battle. “The terrorists could not subdue the gallant troops, during the gun battle. 24 of their dead bodies killed in the gun battle were recovered as the rest fled with injuries to different directions.“We also recovered huge sophisticated weapons apart from their gun trucks that were completely destroyed by airstrikes.”

I guess the army will go and burn down houses in the Borno community where 7 of its members were killed
