Troops of 121 Task Force Battalion, 26 Task Force Brigade, yesterday
Sunday 13th June 2016, successfully repelled an attack on their location
by suspected Boko Haram terrorists at Pulka. The terrorists who came
through Banki axis of Sambisa forest, attempted to inflict damage on our
troops. But the vigilant soldiers rose to the occasion and dealt
decisively with the terrorists by killing 6 of them.
They also recovered 1 Fabrique Nationale (FN) rifle with registration
number 167229, two belts of 148 rounds of 7.62mm (NATO) ammunition and 1
FN rifle magazine loaded with 7.62mm ammunition (Special). The troops

Unfortunately, 5 soldiers sustained various degrees of injuries during
the attack. They have been moved to the unit’s Medical Reception Station
