Nigerian troops neutralise 152 insurgents, arrests 142

Daily Post 1 day 2 mins read

No fewer than 152 terrorists have been killed by Troops of Operation HADIN KAI, OPHK, in the North-Eastern part of the country between August 1 and 31, 2026.

According to a security expert, Zagazola Makama, the latest operational figures indicated that 142 others, including suspected logistics suppliers, were also arrested.

In a report posted on his official X handle on Tuesday, Makama said the monthly operational summary also indicated that 219 terrorists surrendered to the troops during the period.

The troops also conducted 10 successful air interdictions in support of ground operations, targeting terrorist movements and logistics activities in different locations within the theatre.

The air operations complemented sustained ground offensives aimed at disrupting terrorist formations, supply routes and freedom of movement.

During the period under review, troops also neutralised nine improvised explosive devices, IEDs, thereby denying terrorist elements the opportunity to use the devices against military personnel and civilians.

The troops recovered 58 weapons and explosive items, as well as 1,184 rounds of ammunition during various operations.

The recoveries are expected to further degrade the firepower and operational capacity of terrorist elements operating in the North-East.

The troops also recovered 16 mobility assets, including motorcycles, bicycles, tricycles and other vehicles reportedly linked to terrorist activities.
