“The troops recovered the following items from the operation, four AK-47 rifles, 160 rounds of 7.62mm special ammunition, and one box of 12.7mm ammunition.

“Despite this success, the operation came at a heavy cost, as five gallant soldiers tragically lost their lives in the line of duty,” the statement read.

Meanwhile, in response to these events, the military called on the public to remain vigilant and alert in their communities.

The military also urged the public to report any suspicious activities related to terrorism or security threats in Gudu LGA and surrounding areas to security agencies.

The statement retreated that public cooperation is essential in safeguarding lives and maintaining peace in our communities.
