Woman and Son Flee Boko Haram Enclave, Surrender to Troops in Borno
A woman and her eight-year-old son, described as relatives of suspected Boko Haram members, have surrendered to Operation HADIN KAI troops in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State. The pair reportedly fled the Kwatara terrorist enclave in the Mandara Mountains, citing severe shortages of food and other basic necessities. They surrendered during a patrol along the Gwoza–Limankara Road on August 2, 2026. Troops screened and documented them before taking them into custody for further profiling. Military sources said sustained operations are increasing pressure on insurgent hideouts across the North-East.
