Buba said that while an army Lieutenant died in the ambush, four other personnel, who sustained injuries in action, were receiving treatment.
He, however, said the troops’ reinforcement pursued the terrorist to their hideout within the Timbuktu Triangle and neutralised six of them.
According to him, troops recovered five AK 47 rifles and 103 rounds of the 7.62mm special ammunition.
“The remaining terrorist ran in disarray and the troops are in hunt of the remnant terrorist that fled the firefight,” he said.
