The Nigerian military is tightening its grip on insurgents in the North-East and the results are becoming harder to ignore.
Troops of Operation Hadin Kai have successfully cleared multiple terrorist camps, disrupted planned attacks, and sustained aggressive ground and air operations across key flashpoints in the region, according to military sources.
The renewed offensive targets remnants of Boko Haram and ISWAP elements operating in parts of Borno, Yobe, and Adamawa States, where security forces say terrorists have attempted to regroup following earlier setbacks.
In coordinated ground assaults backed by air support, troops overran several insurgent hideouts, destroying logistics bases, weapons caches, and communication equipment.
Security sources confirm that planned attacks on civilian communities and military locations were intercepted and neutralised before execution.
Military analysts note that disrupting camps is critical. Studies on counter-insurgency operations show that dismantling command and logistics hubs can reduce insurgent operational capacity by over 40%, especially when sustained over time.
Unlike past hit-and-run tactics, Operation Hadin Kai’s current strategy focuses on continuous pressure denying terrorists the time and space to reorganise.
This approach aligns with global counter-terrorism findings. According to defence experts, sustained offensives combined with intelligence-led operations improve long-term security outcomes by up to 35% compared to isolated raids.
Troops remain on high alert, maintaining patrols and dominance across reclaimed areas to prevent re-infiltration.
For communities long affected by insurgency, these operations offer cautious optimism. Clearing camps not only weakens terrorist networks but also improves conditions for humanitarian access, farming activities, and gradual resettlement.
Military authorities reaffirmed their commitment to protecting civilians, securing critical infrastructure, and restoring stability in the North-East, while urging residents to continue sharing timely intelligence.
