Troops of 27 Task Force Brigade in Buni-Gari, Yobe, have bombed ISWAP terrorists’ position with heavy artillery after sighting them in a convoy of gun trucks.

The incident occured last Saturday, April 29th, 2023, at Ambia village in Gujba Local Government Area of Yobe State.

Reports indicated that the artillery bomb landed in one of the gun trucks of the terrorists, killing unconfirmed numbers of them and injuring others.

It also gathered that the terrorists have evacuated their wounded colleagues as well as those killed by the bomb and were reportedly conveyed to Zindia in the Timbuktu Triangle, where they were buried and treating the wounded ones.

Recall that recently ISWAP terrorists killed 10 villagers in cold blood along Buni-Gari axis.

The deceased met their untimely death when one of them went to fetch firewood in a nearby bush, but was ambushed and killed by the terrorists.

Having gone missing for about 24 hours, his relatives mobilized and embarked on a search-and-rescue mission, only to be killed by the terrorists with some escaping with gunshot wounds.

The Yobe State Government had, in strong terms, condemned the attack on the innocent citizens and called on the military to intensify aggressive fighting patrol along the area.
