10 Soldiers Feared Killed, Two Captured As Terrorists Attack Military Base In Maru, Zamfara


At least 10 soldiers were reportedly killed and two others captured alive when terrorists attacked a military position in Bindin, Maru Local Government Area of Zamfara State on Monday.

Sources said the attack occurred yesterday when heavily armed bandits, in large numbers on motorcycles, stormed the troops' location and opened fire.

The soldiers were said to have engaged the terrorists in a fierce gun battle that lasted for hours, but were overpowered due to the superior number of the attackers.

Ten soldiers were killed in the encounter, while two others were taken away alive by the terrorists. Weapons and other military equipment were also reportedly carted away according to report.

Maru LGA has remained one of the hotspots of banditry in Zamfara, with repeated attacks on communities and security formations despite ongoing operations by Operation Fansan Yamma.

The Nigerian Army and Zamfara State Police Command are yet to officially confirm the incident as of press time.

Details later...




Our gallant brave soldiers are falling in battlefields, they need our prayers...🙏🙏...RIP to the fallen ones, quick recovery for the injured ones, divine freedom for the captured ones....🙏🙏

Terrible news....there was a country

Every single military formation MUST be equipped with several drones whose handling must be taught to multiple operators. Those drones must be flown in turns, so that when one lands to recharge batteries, the others will be aloft, keeping an eye on the surrounding area so that this kind of surprise attack cannot be launched by terrorrists.

The military high command must expedite the acquisition of these drones as a matter of extreme urgency, to preempt repeat occurrences of this guerrilla tactic attack. Even before the drones are delivered, their operators can begin training NOW, using laptops and commercially available training packages which can be bought used for just $100 USD with the controller.

Every platoon of the Nigerian army must have at least TEN highly trained drone operators, so that there will always be someone who can conduct aerial reconnaissance even in the event that casualties are sustained. The power needed to charge drone batteries and the controller batteries can be derived in remote outposts with SOLAR panels.\

For goodness sake, PLEASE do this NOW.

So the military cannot put up a defensive fight and make a tactical withdrawal in face of overwhelming assault?

Be deceiving yourself, corruption na your mate?

Things that should work normally, don’t work where corruption is ruling.

These are Islamic terrorists and not 'bandits'

Continuous usage of the term 'bandit' lulls southern Nigeria into a false sense of security even as Sharia law is being deliberately propagated throughout sub-saharan Africa

This is genuinely one of the most balanced viewpoints I have read on this forum recently, as it encourages everyone in the section to look past surface-level assumptions and focus on facts. Hopefully, the subsequent replies keep up this high standard of quality discussion.
