Text: Troops Recover Four RPG Bombs in Mandara Mountains Search Operation By: Zagazola Makama Troops of 82 Division Task Force Battalion, Ngoshe, have recovered four improvised rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) bombs during a fighting patrol around the Mandara Mountains in Borno State. Security sources told Zagazola that the operation was conducted on April 25 at about 11:45 a.m. when the troops embarked on a patrol from the battalion headquarters to the foot of the Mandara Mountains in the Bokko area. The sources said the troops combed the area and discovered four RPG bombs concealed under a shrub at the base of the mountains. According to the sources, preliminary assessment indicated that the explosives were likely concealed by suspected terrorists for possible use against troops or other targets within the general area.
