The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has announced that troops across Nigeria killed scores of terrorists, arrested 86 criminals—including terrorists, collaborators, and oil thieves—and rescued 26 kidnapped victims in the past week.
Troops also foiled oil theft worth over N13.4 million, seizing 12,350 litres of crude oil, 840 litres of AGO, and 1,350 litres of DPK, while dismantling two illegal oil refinery sites.
Additionally, 12 large crude oil smuggling boats, six crude oil cooking ovens, four dugout pits, five storage tanks, and three oil thieves were apprehended.
Major General Markus Kangye, Director of Defence Media Operations, said the operations included the arrest of terrorist logistics suppliers, recovery of weapons, dismantling of criminal networks, and safe resettlement of displaced persons.
