Reports from Sokoto State in the northwestern part of Nigeria have indicated that the Nigerian military has launched a series of attacks on the enclave of the terrorist bandits who operate in the region, ChannelsTV reports.
A number of the terrorists were said to have been killed, while many others were injured in the wake of the military attacks.
Recall that Satiru and Katanga, two villages in Isa LGA, were recently attacked by bandits, resulting in the deaths of numerous inhabitants.
On the other hand, the military claimed to have raided the marauders’ hideouts on Thursday and Friday, killing many of the gunmen.
According to sources, several of the bandits who escaped the raid were spotted attempting to leave around the fringes of Bafarawa hamlet, some on motorcycles.
All attempts to contact the division’s army spokesman in the division were fruitless as of the time of reporting this article. More information on the situation is expected in the coming hours.
