The Army on Wednesday announced the destruction of a
Boko Haram terrorists’ rocket factory at Jamrari, Borno State.
Army spokesman Col Sani Usman confirmed this in a statement. According to the statement ;
“The troops of 111 Special Forces Battalion, 7 Division Garrison, Nigerian Army, during a special raid carried out on Tuesday at Delwa general area, discovered and knocked out Boko Haram terrorists’ rocket factory at Jamrari, Borno State.
“This unprecedented development has put paid to the much-touted ability of the terrorists to fabricate rockets and their launchers using rudimentary materials.
“This has further crippled the terrorists and greatly emboldened the troops in carrying out more offensive actions against the terrorists till they are defeated.
“The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Yusufu Buratai, who is in constant communication with the troops, commended them for this singular act and other similar feats and encouraged them to do more as the terrorists are on the verge of being defeated.”
Suicide bombings on soft targets have continued unabated even as the terrorists come under increasing pressure from the military in the Northeast.
