MNJTF Neutralizes Terrorist, Thwart Boko Haram Movement in Lake Chad

As part of the ongoing Operation Lake Sanity 2, troops of Sector 2 Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) based in Bagasola, Chad, conducted an ambush on May 13, 2024.

A statement by MNJTF spokesperson, Lt Colonel Abubakar Abdullahi said the operation took place on Litri Island, situated on the border between Chad and Nigeria in the Central Lake Chad, resulting in the neutralization of one terrorist.

The troops recovered several items, including one AK 47 rifle, two magazines, one unexploded ordnance device, a mobile phone and other personal belongings. This marks a blow to terrorist capabilities in the area.

On May 11, 2024, troops from 19 Brigade Sector 3 MNJTF disrupted a logistics movement by Boko Haram terrorists in the Burwarti area of Kukawa LGA, Borno State, Nigeria. The ambush led to the capture of two motorcycles, one Baofeng radio, four bags of millet and various miscellaneous items. Following this operation, a clearance operation from Burwarti to Daban Masara resulted in the intercept of a civilian vehicle by troops. The vehicle, driven by Mr. Baba Ado, carrying passengers and empty baskets towards Daban Masara, was found six kilometers east of Burwarti. After a thorough search and interrogation, Mr. Baba Ado, who was on the 19 Brigade’s watch list, was detained for further investigation.

Adding to these successes, on May 13, 2024, the Nigerien Gendarmerie in Sector 4 MNJTF located in Diffa, Niger Republic, seized petroleum products concealed within sacks of maize cereals. This operation, conducted about five kilometers from the main road on the outskirts of Diffa town, thwarted an attempt to smuggle these products past security checkpoints, products that were destined for terrorist groups operating within the Lake Chad Basin. These collective efforts significantly undermine the logistical and operational capabilities of terrorists in the Lake Chad Basin region. The MNJTF remains committed to eradicating the menace of terrorism and restoring peace and security to the region.
