TROOPS RECORD MAJOR OPERATIONAL SUCCESSES AGAINST TERRORISTS, NEUTRALISE IEDS AND DISRUPT LOGISTICS NETWORK Troops of Operation HADIN KAI have continued to sustain offensive operations against terrorist elements across the North-East theatre, recording significant successes in recent operations conducted between 16 and 19 June 2026. On 16 June 2026, troops of the 135 Special Forces Battalion Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Team, in conjunction with the Quick Reaction Force (QRF), responded to an intelligence report from local residents regarding the emplacement of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) along the Biu–Buratai Road. Acting swiftly on the information, the troops conducted a fighting patrol to the affected area, where they identified and professionally detonated five IED cylinders planted by terrorists along the route. The operation was executed successfully without any casualty, after which the troops safely returned to base. Building on this success, troops of the 153 Task Force Battalion on 17 June 2026 engaged terrorists along the Miyanti–Ngoshe axis while withdrawing from a picketing duty in Kirawa. The troops made contact with an unconfirmed number of terrorists mounted on approximately 60 motorcycles. Although the terrorists initiated the encounter by opening fire on the troops, the gallant soldiers responded with overwhelming and sustained firepower, compelling the insurgents to retreat in disarray towards Miyanti. While terrorist casualties could not be immediately confirmed, troops recovered 817 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition, three motorcycles, two solar panels, 102 sachets of salt, one motorcycle tyre, two motorcycle tubes, as well as several other motorcycle spare parts. Furthermore, on 19 June 2026, troops of the 27 Task Force Brigade Garrison recorded another breakthrough following credible intelligence on terrorist logistics activities. While conducting a routine stop-and-search operation at the Brigade's checkpoint, the troops intercepted and arrested two suspected Boko Haram Terrorists/Islamic State West Africa Province (BHT/ISWAP) logistics suppliers identified as Mohammed Bukar, also known as "Dege", aged 35, and his apprentice, Iliyasu Abdullahi, aged 26. The suspects were apprehended in a cyan Volkswagen vehicle with registration number FGF-357-AG while conveying Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) and relief materials intended for BHT/ISWAP elements. These successful operations reaffirm the unwavering commitment of troops of Operation HADIN KAI to denying terrorists freedom of action, disrupting their logistics networks, and ensuring the safety and security of law-abiding citizens. Accordingly, the military encourages members of the public to sustain their support by providing timely and credible information to security agencies, as such cooperation remains critical to ongoing counter-terrorism efforts.

OPERATION HADIN KAI DELIVERS ANOTHER DECISIVE BLOW TO ISWAP TERRORISTS The Joint Task Force (North East) Operation HADIN KAI has once again demonstrated its operational dominance and combat readiness by successfully defeating ISWAP attack and launching a devastating counter-offensive against the terrorists in the Buratai axis. In the early hours of 19 June 2026, ISWAP terrorists launched multiple attacks on troops' locations at Dusten Kura and Chara road in Buratai, Biu Local Government Area of Borno State. The alert troops, supported by robust intelligence, promptly detected the incursion and responded with superior firepower in a well-coordinated air and ground counter-attack. The prompt and effective employment of the Air Component of OPHK, particularly Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance as well as precision strike platforms from the Nigerian Air force, proved decisive. The precision air support integrated seamlessly with ground forces, disrupted the terrorists' assault and inflicted heavy casualties on the attackers, forcing them to flee in confusion. It is worthy to note that no casualties were recorded on own troops, while the terrorists suffered significant losses in personnel and equipment. This latest success underscores the high state of readiness of OPHK troops and the synergy between the ground and air components in maintaining relentless pressure on the terrorists. The Theatre Command remains committed to denying insurgents freedom of action and ensuring the safety of law-abiding citizens across the North East theatre. The public is urged to continue providing timely intelligence to security forces and to remain vigilant. OPHK would comtinue to sustain aggressive offensive operations to decisively degrade terrorist capabilities and restore lasting peace to the region.
