Joseph Akubo, released a statement to newsmen in Owerri on Saturday, detailing the operation.<\/p>\n<p>According to Akubo, the terrorists were part of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and its armed affiliate, the Eastern Security Network (ESN).<\/p>\n<p>While returning from routine patrols on Friday, Dec. 27, 2024, the troops responded to a distress call about an IPOB\/ESN attack on the Osina community, engaging the terrorists with intense firepower and forcing them to retreat in disarray.<\/p>\n<p>Two security agents, not soldiers, lost their lives in the encounter. &#8220;The corpses of the slain agents were recovered, and the troops pursued the fleeing terrorists,&#8221; Akubo said.<\/p>\n<p>The troops re-engaged the IPOB\/ESN elements at Nkwachi Community, neutralizing one terrorist and recovering an AK-47 rifle with a fully loaded magazine. The terrorists fled into the nearby forest.<\/p>\n<p>The troops continued their pursuit, engaging the terrorists in a heavy firefight in Umalouma forest. The terrorists eventually abandoned their weapons and fled with severe gunshot injuries.<\/p>\n<p>In total, the troops recovered five AK-47 rifles, one Fabrique Nationale rifle, and a tear gas launcher.
