Nigerian Fishs Boko Haram Troops Out[ See Massive Weapons Acquired]

According to a new report on the Nigerian Defence website, troops have cleared and taken over Balmo forest in a military operation that lasted throughout the weekend.

Prior to the operation, Balmo forest stretching from Bauchi through Jigawa States with links to the fringes of Sambisa forest was used by terrorists as bases and hideouts for launching
attacks. But thankfully, terrorists and armed gangs operating in the forests were completely rooted out while some were captured during the operation.

Among those captured were two foreigners who are suspected to be mercenaries. Also recovered were several weapons and equipment including power generating sets, communication equipment, vehicles, motorcycles, foodstuff and kitchen utensils.
