#Nigeria: Pics from this ISWA attack against the NA in Azir, #Borno, showing standard AK/PG/RPG (With PG-7M/RHEAT-7MA2) in use, plus uparmoured transport with NSV HMG- likely the one lost. An NA Isotrex Phantom 2 APC can be seen (likely later destroyed), plus NSV/AK/ammo. RT @TomaszRolbiecki: Thankfully, ISWAP wasn't as successful in Azir. In fact, the group lost one of the FrankenMRAPs (those seen in the Alagarno bay'ah photoset) and an unknown number of fighters, as well as a pick-up and machine guns. Three Nigerian soldiers were wounded.
