Troops of the Nigerian Army on Saturday attacked Boko Haram terrorists’ enclave in Douro area near Damasak in Borno State, prompting the insurgents to flee for their lives.
The Nigerian Army disclosed this on Sunday via its official Facebook page, saying the insurgents abandoned their gun trucks and weapons in disarray.
The Army, however, did not indicate whether some terrorists were killed in the counter insurgency operations by the military.

“During the attack terrorists fled in disarray abandoning their gun trucks & weapons. Aggressive patrols are currently ongoing,” the post read.
