Soldiers Repel Zamfara Attacks, K¡ll Scores Of Terr0rists

Troops of the Joint Task Force, North-West, Operation Fansan Yamma, have repelled successive attacks by terrorists on communities in Anka Local Government Area of Zamfara State.

The troops also neutralised a suspected terrorist in Kaduna State and recovered two fabricated rifles, two motorcycles and other items during separate operations.

According to a statement posted on the Nigerian Army Headquarters’ Facebook page on Sunday, the operations were conducted on November 14, 2026, as part of efforts to sustain pressure on terrorist groups and deny them freedom of movement across the North-West.

The statement said troops of Sector 2 responded to an attack by motorcycle-riding terrorists on Wuya and Yarzabia communities in Anka LGA, engaging the assailants with superior firepower and forcing them to retreat.

It added that the terrorists regrouped and launched another attack but were again repelled by the troops, who maintained their defensive positions.

“Reinforcements subsequently arrived and extended operations to adjoining communities, while troops sustained aggressive patrols to reassure residents and prevent further terrorist incursions,” the statement said.

The Army disclosed that the Air Component of Operation Fansan Yamma also deployed a combat aircraft to support the ground troops during the operation.

It said the aircraft identified terrorists attempting to move a large herd of suspected rustled cattle away from the affected communities before engaging them in multiple air strikes.

“The terrorists were subsequently engaged in multiple air strikes, neutralising scores of terrorists,” the statement added.

In a related operation in Kaduna State, troops of Sector 1 reportedly neutralised a suspected terrorist during a fighting patrol around farmlands in Aguba Village, Kajuru Local Government Area.

The statement said the troops acted on credible intelligence about suspected terrorist activities in the area before encountering armed men in a firefight.

It added that other members of the group fled, while troops recovered two fabricated rifles, a mobile phone, substances suspected to be cannabis and other illicit drugs, as well as recharge cards.

The Army further disclosed that troops intercepted another group of armed terrorists along the Buruku-Kaduna Road on the same day.

According to the statement, the terrorists fled into a nearby forest after a gun battle with the troops, abandoning two motorcycles, which were recovered.

It said the troops subsequently continued pursuit and exploitation operations to prevent the fleeing suspects from regrouping.

The Theatre Command commended the troops for their resilience and fighting spirit, urging them to sustain the operational momentum.

It also called on members of the public to continue providing timely and credible information to security agencies to support efforts to restore lasting peace and security across the North-West.
