Troops of Joint Task Force North West, Operation FANSAN YAMMA have neutralised two

operations in Sokoto State.

 

The Media Information Officer of the taskforce, Aliyu Danja, disclosed this in a
statement on 16 October 2026.

 

According to the statement, during the operations carried out on Thursday, October
15, troops of Sector 2 made contact with terrorists at Waria Forest and engaged 
them in a firefight, neutralising one terrorist and recovering two AK-47 rifles,
two motorcycles and other items.

 

“In a subsequent encounter at Sarma Village, troops engaged another group of terrorists
in a firefight, neutralising one and forcing others to flee, abandoning their equipment,”
the statement read.

 

“Further exploitation of the area led to the recovery of six additional motorcycles,
two AK-47 rifles, four magazines, 23 rounds of ammunition, one communication device
and other sundry items.

 

“These successes underscore the sustained commitment of troops of Operation FANSAN
YAMMA to dismantling terrorist networks and restoring lasting peace and security
