According to Captain David Adewusi, Media Information Officer of the operation, the military offensive led to the neutralisation of six terrorists, recovery of arms and ammunition, destruction of terrorist infrastructure, and the rescue of an underage kidnap victim, Halira Ibrahim.

The operation commenced with a targeted assault on Indulumu village, where solrs engaged and neutralised two terrorists. Troops then advanced to Ruduno village, encountering further resistance, and successfully neutralised four additional terrorists, dismantling a key element of the terrorist network.

Captain Adewusi praised the solrs for their exceptional bravery and tactical proficiency, noting that sustained military pressure continues to restore security and ility in affected communities. The Nigerian Army reaffirmed its commitment to protecting citizens, dismantling terrorist networks, and safeguarding the lives of vulnerable individuals in Zamfara State and across the North-West region.
