Three female suicide bombers were yesterday caught and neutralized by the troops of 22 Brigade Garrison deployed in Operation LAFIYA DOLE yesterday Sunday 30th December in Borno State.
The troops were on patrol around Kubtara village in Dikwa Local Government Area of Borno State when they encountered the three female suicide bombers.
Terrorists seem to have adopted the tactic of using women as bombers. Recall Dockaysworld brought you a report of two female suicide bombers apprehended earlier this month.
A statement from the Army says one Rocket Propelled Grenade and a suicide vest was recovered from the suicide bombers at the scene of the encounter.
The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Yusufu Buratai, in the statement, commended the troops for their successful exploits and encouraged them to be more daring, vigilant and steadfast, as they clear the remnants of Boko Haram terrorists.
