  • US Strikes IS Militants in Nigeria

    01:42|
    U.S. Launches Airstrikes in Nigeria: Targeting Islamic State Militants in Sokoto State The United States conducted airstrikes against Islamic State militants in Nigerias Sokoto state, marking a significant escalation in the fight against these groups. The strikes were a response to the militants vicious attacks on innocent Christians. Nigeria confirmed the action was a result of close intelligence sharing and coordination with the U.S. The militants, known locally as Lakurawa or Islamic State Sahel Province, have been growing more deadly in border areas like Sokoto and Kebbi, often attacking remote villages and security forces. The group, which has roots in neighboring Niger, emerged around 2017 when local leaders invited them to guard communities from bandit gangs. However, they overstayed, clashed with leaders, and imposed a harsh version of sharia law, turning locals against them. The strikes highlight growing U.S. involvement in Africas security hotspots as Nigeria pushes back against these militants. Checkout Solipillow.com
