Nigeria’s Defence Headquarters (DHQ) says the armed forces carry out operations across the country over the past week, reporting rescues of kidnapped victims and the neutralisation of terrorists. Premium Times and Vanguard both cite DHQ briefings describing multiple operations conducted between 25 and 28 May and in the “last one week,” respectively. According to the DHQ statements, troops rescue large numbers of kidnapped people during these operations, with one report saying 179 victims are rescued, while another puts the figure at 327. The DHQ also reports security gains from encounters with armed groups, including that terrorists are killed or neutralised. One outlet’s summary attributes the neutralisation of 10 terrorists to the operations referenced, while the other mentions that several terrorists are killed without specifying a number. Both sources frame the updates as part of ongoing nationwide military actions and rely on DHQ disclosures for the casualty and victim figures. Neither source provides further details on the locations of the operations or the identities of the rescued victims beyond the totals reported by DHQ.
