The Chadian military has announced a significant victory against Boko Haram terrorists in the Lake Chad region.
According to a statement from the General Staff of the Armed Forces, a commando unit of the Rapid Intervention Force (FIR) conducted a series of air-land and nautical military maneuvers in the localities of Litri, Kaiga-Ngouboua, and Kaiga-Kindjiria, resulting in the destruction of five terrorist camps, including Boko Haram’s main base in the area.
The operation, which was carried out in support of the Defense and Security Forces, resulted in the incapacitation of over 70 terrorists.
The entire human and material apparatus of the terrorists was pushed out of Chadian territory, leading to a significant reduction in major terrorist attacks in the region.
This operation follows “Operation Lake Sanity 2” led by the Multinational Joint Force (FMM) on Cameroonian and Nigerian territories, which pushed Boko Haram terrorists into Chadian territory.
The Chadian military’s swift and decisive action has dealt a major blow to the terrorist group’s capabilities in the region.
