The sources said that the ongoing regional combined sustained operations as well as airstrikes and heavy Artillary bombardments by troops of DESERT SANITY and MNJTF LAKE SANITY have exerted so much pressure on the fighters and totally disoriented them.
This, according to him, was as a result of the aggressive deployment of intelligence, kinetic and non-kinetic onslaught by the Armed Forces in collaboration with the friendly forces of Chad, Niger and Comeroon which have led to the death of many of the terrorists including their top commanders as well as the total obliteration of their enclaves.
“Many more of the fighters and their families have also given up their arms following intense pressure and the near impossibility of accessing drugs for their wounded Mujahedeens, while the surviving terrorists were forced to fled to established temporary camps in safe what they considered as locations.
“They ran toward the waterways of Daban Masara and are currently hiding at Sabon Tumbu, Tudun Wulgo, Kusuma and Sigir n Marte and Ngala local government areas.
Others fighters were spotted on boats with their families and logistics while trying to escape through Kaduna Ruwa and Kandahar, located between the axis between Niger and Chad Republic,”said the top Intelligence sources.
