A fierce battle between Boko Haram terrorists and ISWAP has led to the d3ath of over 100 terrorists.
This is according to counter-insurgency expert and security analyst Zagazola Makama in a post on Monday.
Makama stated that Boko Haram appears to be defeating ISWAP, overrunning several of their camps.
Makama noted that he would provide updates on the development with videos and pictures, adding that his new cameraman was doing a wonderful job.
Recall that Boko Haram and ISWAP were locked in a fierce battle for control of strategic island settlements in Abadam and Kukawa Local Government Areas of Borno State.
Makama disclosed that the clashes occurred between November 5 and 8, 2025, across key islands identified as Sahel 1, Dogon Chuku, Mangari, and the riverine basins of Tumbun Gini, Tumbun Dalo, Tumbun Shanu, Mangari, and Dumba.
The report stated that Boko Haram fighters, led by commanders Hassan Buduma and Mohd Hassan, launched coordinated attacks on ISWAP positions using multiple motorized watercraft equipped with heavy weapons.
The group reportedly advanced from Tumbun Gini through the upper river basin, striking ISWAP bases in an early-morning assault described as “an amphibious attack in insurgent style.”
