In a statement issued on Saturday, Lt. Suleiman Omale of OPHD reported that the operation took place on August 16, 2024, in the Unguwar Sarkin Musulmi area of Kaura Namoda Local Government Area. Acting on credible intelligence, the troops swiftly responded to reports of extremist activities in the area. Upon arrival, they engaged the extremists in a fierce gunfight, successfully neutralizing two of them.
