they found and arrested some terrorists dressed as women. Find the military
press statement below.
"The cordon and search in Baga has revealed some
terrorists disguising as women. The searches are also yielding more
discoveries of arms especially bombs hidden in various locations, especially
Baga town. Apart from those captured in the course of fighting, many arrests of
terrorists hiding in the town are being made and troops are still busy
interrogating the suspects.Meanwhile, in furtherance of the mission to clear terrorists
from all their enclaves by the military, the Nigerian Air Force has stepped up
its air bombardment of identified targets in Gwoza, Bama and Sambisa forest,
preparatory to other phases of the mission. The air strikes have been highly
successful as they achieved the aims, hitting vital targets with required
precision. Terrorists are now in disarray as they scamper to escape
from the impact of air bombardment of their locations in the forest.Having successfully liberated Baga where the terrorists have been marauding,
the troops’ attention has now been focused on consolidation of the security of
the area to pave way for return of citizens.
