Troops of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) have sustained intense offensive operations against Boko Haram/ISWAP terrorists across Borno State along Azir–Wajiroko axis forcing 11 terrorists fighters to surrender along with their AK 47 rifles and assorted ammunition.
A statement signed by the Media Information Officer Joint Task Force (North East) Operation Hadin Kai, Leutenan Colonel Sani Uba says on 9th January 2026, troops conducted extensive clearance operations in the Bulaagalda cluster, destroying several terrorist enclaves and camps at Dagumba, Bonne, Yaganari, Gosuri and Umchile.
During the operation, troops dismantled life-support structures, degraded terrorist logistics and recovered items including terrorist flags and weapons as well as magazines.
Similar offensive operations in the Yale and Bula Gaida areas forced terrorists to flee, leading to the destruction of additional logistics facilities and the recovery of weapons, ammunition and a general purpose machine-gun.
In a related operation based on credible intelligence, troops engaged JAS/ISWAP elements between Sojiri and Kayamla villages, resulting in the neutralisation of 8 terrorists and the recovery of AK-47 rifles and arrested 2 suspected terrorist logistics collaborators at Gubio LGA for supplying terrorists logistics.
