According to the Makama, the soldiers from Sub-Sector 5 set up an ambush along the Wake–Kabode–Abrum axis after learning that terrorists were heading from Gabachua high ground towards Insami and Kabode for a planned kidnapping.

“The ambush, which took place around 7:00 a.m., led to the killing of two terrorists,” Makama wrote.

Troops recovered two AK-47 rifles, two extra magazines, a mobile phone, and a motorcycle, which was destroyed at the scene.
