Here is a Panhard AML-60 also abandoned by the NA and another view of the BTRs. Note the apparent local modifications carried out. Oh, and another OTO Melara Mod 56 Pack Howitzer captured.

Police and NA pickups also captured- "only" 2 seen but ISIS claim 3. Lots of ammunition captured too along with FN MAG: Belted 40mm, possible Mortar Bombs, Mills(!) and Type 86P hand grenades, PG-7V/PG-7VM, 37mm launchers, 12.7mm ammo and more.
Likely small arms unseen.

Villages like Mutube near the Sambisi Forest have disappeared without a trace as a result of the Boko Haram insurgency in 2017.
These two small traditional villages that once sat on the southern side of the Sambisi were erased between 2016 and 2017.
