Nigerian Air Strikes Neutralize 15 ISWAP Fighters in Borno

The Authority·

Nigerian air strikes conducted in Kangarwa, Borno State, successfully neutralized 15 fighters of the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) as part of an ongoing military operation. The strikes were based on credible intelligence targeting insurgent infrastructure and gathering points within the area, known as a stronghold for ISWAP.

A highly reliable source confirmed that the operation inflicted significant casualties on the terrorist ranks, with several others sustaining severe injuries. The air strikes also impacted structures linked to senior terrorist command in the region.

Notably, a top ISWAP figure, identified as Malam Nuhu, was believed to have vacated the premises shortly before the strike, narrowly escaping destruction. The Nigerian military's operations, referred to as "Had in Kai," continue to refine their targeting processes to maintain relentless pressure on terrorist elements, aiming to dismantle ISWAP's operational capabilities and leadership structures across the northeast region.
