Security forces have recorded widespread operational successes across the North-West and North-Central regions, rescuing abducted persons, foiling kidnapping attempts, and arresting suspected terrorists and criminal collaborators in Katsina, Zamfara, Kogi, Kebbi and Kwara states.
The operations, carried out by the military and police under various formations, were intensified in recent weeks as part of ongoing counter-terrorism and anti-kidnapping offensives aimed at dismantling criminal networks and restoring stability in affected communities.
In Katsina and Zamfara states, troops of Operation Fansan Yamma rescued seven kidnapped victims and foiled coordinated abduction attempts during sustained search-and-rescue and offensive operations.
In Katsina State, troops under Operation Clean Sweep III stormed a terrorist enclave in Fafu Village, Matazu Local Government Area, acting on intelligence reports that abducted victims were being held in the area.
The military said the operation forced the criminals to flee their camp under heavy pressure.
