Troops of Operation HADIN KAI with the Civilian Joint Task have recovered 3 AK-47 rifles and 5 AK -47 rifle magazines from operations along the Mafa border corridor.
While the operations followed an intelligence led follow up, the recovered items are believed to be part of the terrorists cache of arms and ammunition, which also followed an earlier encounter with the terrorists on 7 August, 2025 resulting in the neutralisation of one of the terrorists.
Security Watch Africa (SWA) gathered that the follow-up operations eventually led to the recovery of the additional weapons and magazines.
“Troops have been commended by the Military High Command for the feat and urged to sustain such intelligence-led operations across the theatre.”
