Army Scores Intelligence Breakthrough, Arrests Moroccan ISIS Suspect in Borno
Troops of Operation HADIN KAI repelled a coordinated ISWAP assault on Cross Kauwa in Kukawa LGA and seized a camcorder once belonging to a terrorist media operative. Forensic analysis of footage from the recovered device guided search teams along withdrawal routes into the Lake Chad Islands. During the follow-up operation, soldiers recovered communication gear and arrested a fleeing suspect of Moroccan origin believed linked to ISIS. The detainee was airlifted by the Nigerian Air Force to a secure facility for intensive interrogation. Authorities aim to uncover his role in media production, training, and cross-border coordination for ISWAP. The arrest marks a major intelligence victory for Nigerian forces as they continue sustained operations to dismantle terrorist networks and deny insurgents freedom of movement in Borno State.
