Life has been turned upside-down in the camps of the Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād, Boko Haram within the past weeks following massive air and ground attacks coordinated by the troops of Operations Hadin Kai.
Zagazola said that more than 20 terrorists and their families from Njimiya camp of the terrorists had surendered to the troops of 21 Amoured Brigade Bama, due to the fear of being attacked by military air strikes.
One of the surendered terrorists, (Name withheld) told said that the continued attacks has triggered massive displacement and hunger in most of their terrorists camps, leaving them with no option to either surrender, continue hiding in one place without food, run out of the forest or die.
He said “The attacks began in Garin Asma’u, then we heard that Gazuwa was attacked too. On the same day we heard that some of our people were killed in Gargash. This was why we thought that the next place that will be striked is our camp,”he lamented.
