Troops Thwart ISWAP Raid in Borno, Seize Camcorder Exposing Foreign Terror Links
Troops of the Joint Task Force North East repelled a coordinated ISWAP infiltration at Cross Kauwa in Kukawa LGA, inflicting heavy casualties and forcing the insurgents to retreat under cover of darkness. During battlefield exploitation, they recovered a camcorder loaded with operational footage and propaganda materials. Preliminary forensic analysis revealed recordings of four senior ISWAP commanders coordinating the attack alongside three foreign facilitators identified as a Palestinian chief trainer, a Moroccan medic and another Arab operative. Intelligence sources say the footage confirms transnational support networks supplying training, funds and specialist expertise to the insurgents. Military spokespeople described the failed raid as a significant setback for ISWAP. They noted that sustained offensive operations across the North-East continue to degrade the group’s capabilities and pledged to intensify efforts to restore lasting peace and security in the region.
