Troops Kill Seven Suspected Boko Haram, ISWAP Fighters in Rann, Damboa Operations
- Between May 21 and 22, 2025, forces involved in Operation Hadin Kai carried out separate missions in Rann and Damboa, Borno State, resulting in the elimination of seven individuals suspected of affiliation with Boko Haram and ISWAP.
- These operations followed intelligence reports of terrorists attempting theft and movement toward Sambisa Forest, prompting coordinated clearance and ambush missions by military and allied forces.
- The first clash involved 3 Battalion, Hybrid Forces, and the Civilian Joint Task Force engaging insurgents looting food near Gamboru-Ngala Main Supply Route, killing six and seizing weapons, while an ambush in Damboa killed one insurgent and recovered IED materials.
- Two loaded AK-47 rifles were recovered during the operations, which military officials identified as continuing actions aimed at limiting terrorist mobility and protecting civilians in the area.
- These tactical successes reinforce counter-insurgency progress in Borno but underline the continued threat from Boko Haram and ISWAP, requiring sustained security measures and support for military operations.
