Trash!
All these unnecessary blanket statements.

One of the Guntrucks used in the recent attack has been captured.
Compare and contrast !

There is something I don't get ... When you look at these gun trucks, you will notice that the vehicle were worked in or panel beated. Meaning that iswap have a base where they congregate for work and other things here within the territory if our nation.


Plz when is the army taking the fight to iswap base and camp. We can't keep repelling till eternity.

Well said mate.

They have several bases with full mechanical workshops and spare parts. My close friend got into their captivity and was freed some months ago. You’ll be shocked to know what these guys can do in their hidden bases. We are only seeing vehicles for now and not even mentioning several speed boats in their possession.

The Military needs a massive operation in Northern Borno or this war will continually remain a stalemate. Till date we are still waiting to Repel attacks in 2022.

The current Scenario is ISWAP pushing its attacks on Southern Borno areas. Most locals have had relative peace in that area until its current trend. If this is not checkmated by security forces we will be having another serious humanitarian crises in Southern Borno.

Let’s keep watching

The military's information gag is also not helping matters, if DHQ had continued releasing those airstrike footages, many of these narratives won't be existing.

The Arny PR is way too poor !

cutievik:


Seems they use the personal pictures taken by troops for their press releases.

I'm very sure your friend was debriefed after his release by military intelligence? The several thousands of refugees, terrorists and their families surrendering would have also been questioned in like manner as you yourself have attested to on this forum. The airforce also has ISR aircrafts that it uses to gather Intel on the terrorists. They would have gathered a lot of intelligence many of which have little to no tactical or strategic implications. These intels are prioritized based on the aims and objectives of the counterinsurgency operations. At some point, the NAF was targeting their logistics and supply routes, the new service chiefs seem to favor going after their leadership and large gathering of the terrorists and we've been seeing the results with several headlines reporting the deaths of leaders of bandits and terrorists alike. Just two weeks ago, it was the death of a very important bandit leader due to NAF airstrikes that was reported. The Airforce has not flown over 40000 combat and combat support hours within six years with very limited aircrafts for fun. Maybe when they have more aircrafts to spare(probably with the induction of more UAVs) , they will go after other less important targets.
As for the speedboats you mentioned, I remember reading an article sometimes last year regarding the military seizing a shipment of boat engines belonging to ISWAP. I cannot find the link to the article right now but this might be related to it.

There are several other ways the military can stifle the repair and maintenance of operations of the terrorists other than full military assault including preventing the movement of oxyacetylene gas and welding rods used in joining and cutting of metals and so on. There are several other very obvious materials that are crucial to the successes of the terrorists that the military can limit access to.

Obviously, the military can and should do better but we also need to recognize the efforts they've made.

Rich4god:



The only meaningful thing the military need to do is to come up with a long time plan, recruit more boots, get more engines and take the war to Isis front.

SitRep: The Covert is back to base.
The Happy New Year mother of all offensives the likes of which Africa has never seen when it happens and it will happen barring any last minute new arrivals of additional wonder weapons in theater will make ISWAP islamafascists terrorists rue the day they chose to become mass murderers. ISWAP should surrender now or bleed until comprehensively destroyed and reduced to rubble.

#ISWA/ISWAP released a video, dealing with indoctrination and training of young fighters (many child soldiers); From the video its evident they have a training g camp which might be a make shift training camp. Furthermore in one of the images school classrooms where used.

This video is remarkable from the standpoint of a global terrorist organisation attempting to build a state.
