I'm comin' out! in the recent period as part of the country’s war on terrorism.
Eight takfiris were killed by military forces in different raids in central and northern Sinai, and 10 high-risk others were killed in special operations by national security forces in the North Sinai capital of El-Arish, the army said.
"One army officer was killed during the heroic raids by the army and the police that targeted terrorist infrastructure with the aim of maintaining the security of the homeland," the video statement added.
The air force carried out Arclight airstrikes in the western border area and destroyed 25 off-road vehicles laden with weapons and other contraband.
Military engineers have located and destroyed 141 bombs planted to target security forces.
On 9 February, the anti-terrorism effort dubbed Operation Sinai 2018 was launched in northern and central Sinai, parts of the Nile Delta and desert areas west of the Nile Valley, according to the first Armed Forces communiqué on the operation.
Last July, the army spokesperson said that more 321 bad boyz were potted since the launch of the operation.
[PULSE.NG] At least 12 non-combatants were killed in multiple Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... jihadist attacks targeting two villages and a camp for those displaced by the bloody conflict in northeastern Nigeria, civilian militia and residents told AFP Thursday.
Jihadists in seven trucks late on Wednesday attacked Bulaburin and Kofa villages as well as a camp in Dalori village outside the Borno state capital of Maiduguri.
"The Lions of Islam attacked and completely burnt Bulaburin and Kofa villages and burnt half the Dalori two IDP (internally displaced persons) camp," militia leader Babakura Kolo told AFP.
"They killed nine people in Bulaburin, two people in Dalori, and one in Kofa and looted food supplies before setting them on fire," Kolo said.
The attack was launched in Kofa where the jihadists opened fire indiscriminately and killed one person as residents fled, said Kofa resident Musa Goni.
"They then moved to nearby Bulaburin where they bumped off nine people and burnt the village after stealing food," Goni said.
At Dalori 2 IDP camp, which houses 10,000 homeless people, the jihadists engaged troops and civilian militia guarding the camp in a shootout before overrunning the makeshift facility, civilian militia camp member Solomon Adamu said.
"When the Boko Haram button men came they stopped on the road overlooking the camp and started firing," said Adamu who took part in the fight.
"Soldiers and civilian JTF (militia) at the gate engaged them in shootout but were forced to withdraw into the camp because we were out gunned," he said.
Residents were forced to flee nd two were killed while several were maimed, according to Adamu.
The jihadists invaded the camp after overrunning troops and the militia and "burnt half the camp" by setting fires and firing rocket-propelled grenades on buildings.
"One grenade didn't explode and is still lying in the camp, waiting for bomb disposal units to evacuate it," Adamu said.
The area has been attacked multiple times before by the Boko Haram faction loyal to Abubakar Shekau ... the lunatic leader of Boko Haram who has been reported dead at least eleven times, pledged his body and soul to ISIS, told his fighters to hang it up once or twice, and been fired by the Caliph and refused to step down ... Dalori, which is about 15 kilometres (nine miles) from Maiduguri, houses about 50,000 people in makeshift camps.

[IsraelTimes] Separately, security officer’s jeep catches fire because of incendiary device from the Strip, as arson attacks pick up after brief lull.
A kindergarten in southern Israel was evacuated Thursday morning after a teacher spotted a suspicious object in the playground that was later found to be an bomb, apparently flown into Israel from the nearby Gazoo Strip, officials said.
Sappers were called to the scene to remove the device from the kindergarten in the Eshkol region, a local government spokesperson said.
"The object was collected by security officers and handled by them," the Eshkol spokesperson said.
In a separate case, a security jeep caught fire in Kibbutz Alumim, some four kilometers (2.5 miles) from the Gazoo border, because of an airborne incendiary device from the Strip, according to the fire department.
"The incident is under control, and there are no injuries," said the spokesperson for the fire department’s southern district.
"The fire was sparked when the vehicle went over an incendiary balloon. The small blaze that was under the car sparked a fire in a pipe in the fuel system, which caused the fire to spread to the front part of the car and caused significant damage to the vehicle," he said.
Thursday’s two suspected attacks from Gazoo came amid an uptick in airborne arson attempts from the coastal enclave, following a brief lull earlier in the week.
Arson attacks, which had taken place on an almost daily basis since late March, all but halted entirely from last Thursday to Tuesday.
[IsraelTimes] The Lebanese terror group Hezbollah has been paying rebel fighters formerly backed by the United States in southern Syria to switch sides in that country’s civil war, The Wall Street Journal reports.
The Iranian proxy, which is fighting on behalf of Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad Horror of Homs... ’s regime, has so far recruited some 2,000 fighters, according to the report, which cites unnamed activists and a former rebel commander.
Israel has said it won’t tolerate an Iranian presence in Syria and during the summer Syrian ally Russia announced Iranian forces would pull back to at least 85 kilometers from the border with Israel.
"Russia pushing Iran out is an illusion. It can’t rely on the Syrian army," the Journal quoted the former rebel commander saying.

Hzblh must be having a recruitment problem if they are really doing this as any troops that switch sides are going to be mostly unreliable

The Master of the Obvious™ pic really should be attached to this article. Tribes changing allegiance at the drop of a hat, filled with silver of course!, is as old as the region's inhabitants.
[AlMasdar] The September 17th Sochi Agreement may not have ended the hostilities between the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and murderous Moslem forces in northwest Syria, but it did play an imperative role in decreasing the Russian air activity over the Idlib, Hama, Aleppo, and Latakia provinces.
The month of October marks the first time since September of 2015 that the Russian Aerospace Forces have not bombed any murderous Moslem targets in northern Syria, a military source told al-Masdar News this morning.
According to the military source in the historic provincial capital of the Hama Governorate, the Russian Aerospace Forces have been mostly grounded over northwest Syria this month.
The reason for their lack of air activity is due to the ongoing Sochi Agreement that called for the establishment of a 15-20km buffer zone along the front-lines in northwestern Syria.
While the Russian Aerospace Forces can be seen carrying out reconnaissance missions over northwest Syria, they have not actually engaged any Death Eater that are present in the surveyed area.
In reality, this could change in November if the Sochi Agreement breaks down; however, it appears that both Russia and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...Qatar's colony in Asia Minor.... are working to maintain the buffer zone in northwest Syria as long as they can.
[AlMasdar] (8:00 P.M.) – Just five days after the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh) launched a big attack in the eastern part of the Euphrates River Valley, the region is once again under a major threat as many of the fighters from the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) were redeployed to the Turkish border.
According to Kurdish activists in northern Syria, the Syrian Democratic Forces have redeployed many units to the cities of Kobane (var. ‘Ayn Al-‘Arab) and Tal Al-Abyad to confront the Turkish military this evening.
The redeployment of these units from southeast Deir Ezzor to northern Syria comes just hours after the Turkish military struck a group of SDF fighters at Kobane and Tal Al-Abyad.
Some activists in Kobane are now reporting that the Turkish military is backing off from the city following the arrival of the U.S. Coalition forces to this part of the Aleppo Governorate.
The situation remains very tense at this time and the threat of another Daesh attack near the Iraqi border will likely be a major concern for both the Syrian Democratic Forces and Iraqi-led Hashd Al-Shaabi troops.
