Gallant Troops Repulse Terrorist Attack Along Kurfi-Batsari Road, Neutralise 8 Of Them
In a courageous display of professionalism and resolve, troops of 17 Brigade, Nigerian Army in Katsina State, dealt a decisive blow to and put and end to an attempt by terrorists to attack innocent citizens along the Kurfi–Batsari road in the early hours of Wednesday, 18th June 2025.
The daring assault, launched by terrorists at approximately 5:00 a.m., was engaged by the troops and engaged the attackers in a fierce and prolonged gun battle. Displaying remarkable tactical prowess and bravery, the troops decisively dealt with the assailants, neutralising eight of them and recovering a sizeable AK-47 rifles, magazines, and large quantity of 7.62mm special ammunition.
Unfortunately one soldier sustained injuries during the confrontation and has since been evacuated to the Medical Centre for prompt medical attention. I am glad to state that thankfully his condition is stable.
I salute the courage of this glant troops and deeply appreciates the resilience and support of the local community, whose cooperation continues to bolster security efforts in the region.
This victory denotes the importance of continued vigilance and collaboration between the military and secuirty agencies.
As remnants of these criminal and heartless elements seek refuge, both the military and well meaning Katsina state indegenes must rise to the occasion to ensure that peace is fully restored and sustained across all affected areas of our state.
