Joint US-Nigerian Air Strike Eliminates 21 ISWAP Fighters in Borno
The Nigerian military and United States Africa Command carried out an air strike in Arege, Kukawa LGA, Borno State. Intelligence reports confirmed that ISWAP fighters were planning attacks across the Lake Chad region. Security sources say the precision strike eliminated 21 insurgents and disrupted their operations. This mission is part of ongoing efforts between Nigerian and US forces to degrade terrorist networks and destroy their safe havens. Military officials view the operation as proof of growing cooperation in the fight against extremism in North-East Nigeria. Analysts believe the attack will further weaken insurgent activities around the Lake Chad Basin, where remnants of militant groups have attempted to regroup and launch new assaults on local communities.
