OPERATION HADIN KAI EXECUTES UNPRECEDENTED INTELLIGENCE-LED RESCUE OPERATION, FREES 360 ABDUCTEES FROM JAS STRONGHOLD IN THE MANDARA MOUNTAINS
In one of the most significant hostage rescue operations conducted in the North East Theatre in recent times, troops of the Joint Task Force (North East) Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK), comprising Special Forces and troops of Sector 1, have successfully rescued 360 abductees from a heavily fortified Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati wal-Jihad (JAS) enclave deep within the Mandara Mountains area of southern Borno State. The operation, which was the culmination of weeks of painstaking intelligence preparation, covert reconnaissance, and operational planning, resulted in the safe recovery of men, women, and children who had been held in captivity under harsh conditions after being abducted from several communities, particularly within the Ngoshe axis. The successful rescue underscores the growing operational reach, intelligence dominance, and tactical superiority of OPHK in denying terrorists freedom of action and protecting vulnerable populations across the theatre.
The operation was initiated following the receipt of credible and corroborated intelligence from multiple sources indicating the precise location of the hostages and the existence of an elaborate insurgent support network sustaining the enclave. OPHK intelligence elements subsequently launched an extensive target development process involving the integration of Human Intelligence (HUMINT), Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), and persistent Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) operations conducted through unmanned aerial systems and long-range reconnaissance patrols. Through sustained intelligence collection and analysis, commanders developed a comprehensive understanding of the terrain, insurgent disposition, defensive arrangements, movement patterns, and the condition of the abductees. This intelligence-driven approach enabled the force to accurately map the objective area, identify vulnerabilities within the terrorist network, and significantly reduce risks to the hostages during the rescue mission.
A decisive breakthrough was achieved through the successful penetration of the terrorist network by carefully cultivated intelligence assets operating under the supervision of OPHK military intelligence personnel. These assets provided timely and actionable intelligence regarding the exact locations of the abductees, the disposition of insurgent commanders, internal security measures, and planned relocation routes. Simultaneously, carefully coordinated information and psychological operations created uncertainty and mistrust within the insurgent ranks, degrading their cohesion and disrupting command and control arrangements. The resulting intelligence advantage provided OPHK with unprecedented situational awareness and enabled commanders to shape the operational environment well before the commencement of the assault phase.

Troops Rescue All 360 Women, Children Abducted by Boko Haram in Gwoza Operations
By: Zagazola Makama
Troops of Operation Hadin Kai, in conjunction with Special Operations Forces, have rescued 360 civilians, mainly women and children, abducted by terrorists from Ngoshe community in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State.
Military sources said the rescue followed a coordinated special operation conducted on June 6 across multiple fronts around the Mandara Mountains.
According to the sources, Special Operations Forces initially carried out preliminary missions that created confusion within terrorist camps, paving the way for ground troops of the 26 Task Force Brigade to successfully extract the captives.
The rescued civilians were among residents abducted during a terrorist attack on Ngoshe community on March 3, 2026.
However, the operation recorded a tragic setback as two infants died during the rescue effort due to the harsh and difficult terrain encountered while moving the victims to safety.
The military said all rescued persons underwent immediate medical screening upon arrival, while those requiring urgent medical attention were stabilised by brigade medical personnel and admitted to the General Hospital in Gwoza for treatment.
The victims were also provided with food and water before being moved to a secure holding facility pending their handover to relevant authorities and reunification with their families.
Security sources described the operation as a significant humanitarian and operational success in ongoing efforts to dismantle terrorist networks and rescue civilians held captive in remote areas of the North-East.
They added that the general security situation in the area remained calm but unpredictable, while troops’ morale and operational effectiveness remained high.
For 1000s of years people have been trying to find what Paul was apparently quoting when he said that Christ died for our sins. Now we know Christian’s love to clean up Paul’s mess! Clean this one up, what is Paul referring to when saying Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures (aka The Old Testament)
Re: MURDERING special-needs children in the womb (in the guise of 'mercy'), particularly coming from so-called Christians just shows again why concepts must have meaning.
If 'imago dei' was not said as a platitude, no professing Christian would support aborting them.

If you intentionally bring a child into a life of pain and suffering, whether it’s sickle cell disease, a developmental disorder or disability, or even stark poverty, then you’re a horrible, wicked person.
The Nigerian church does not have a firm grasp of the theology of suffering. Supporting eugenics is incompatible with a grounded theology of suffering. Sigh.
This is the beauty of the Imago Dei.
Ableism and eugenics value people for their function; Christian theology values them for their existence because it recognizes that worth is grounded in being not function. Every single life is purposeful and possesses inherent dignity.
