Soldiers operating under Nigeria’s Operation Hadin Kai say they neutralise 15 terrorists in a precision air strike in Borno State. The strikes are reported to have taken place north-west of Pulka, in Gwoza Local Government Area.
The reports describe the action as intelligence-led and coordinated, with outlets focusing on the operational outcome—killing or neutralising 15 terrorists—and the location of the engagement. One outlet also states the operation occurs at about 11:50 p.m. on 23 October 2026, following credible intelligence and confirmed sightings of terrorist movements near Pulka.
While all accounts align on the number of terrorists and the broad place, the emphasis varies: some lead with the result of the air strike, while others add more detail on timing and the intelligence and targeting rationale. The overall picture across sources is consistent, with limited differences in reported particulars beyond those extra operational elements.
