The Nigerian military fighter troops on Wednesday prevented terrorists in Niger State from totally vandalising assets of the Department of State Services (DSS).
A credible defence intelligence source informed PRNigeria that the troops, with the aid of Super Tucano jets belonging to the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), also succeeded in killing scores of terrorists who attacked the DSS’ assets.
The intelligence operative pleaded anonymity and said the incident happened in the Bassa community of Shiroro, a local government area of the state.
According to him, the troops' successful onslaught against the terrorists followed an intelligence report to the military command about an ambush attack on some DSS personnel and their assets.
"The Super Tucano jets were swiftly deployed for a purpose. And they didn't disappoint. The NAF jets' strikes eliminated no fewer than 30 bandits. However, the casualty on the part of the intelligence officers was low," the operative said. (By PRNigeria)
