An airstrike by troops of the Air Task Force (ATF), Operation Hadin Kai, has neutralised another top commander of Islamic State of the West African Province (ISWAP) terrorists’ group, Muhammed Malik.
The intelligence-led aerial and ground coordinated operation launched by the Nigerian Army and 2 Air Force Super Tukano’s targeted the terrorist group strategic human and material capacity in Sabon Tumbun in the Lake Chad of Marte on November 24, also led to the obliteration of scores of fighters.
A report obtained by Zagazola Makama, a Counter Insurgency Expert from top military intelligence sources and made available to our correspondent said that Muhammed Malik died on November 29, from the fatal injuries he sustained during the attack.
Malik was among the top leaders of ISWAP and was once a member of the Shura Council in Marte before he went for a course on Computer Engineering and Improvised Explosive Device Making, sponsored by ISIS in Somalia.

On his return, Malik established Improvised Explosive Device (IED) training units where fighters are nurtured in deploying explosives during attacks.

The source said that the death of Malik was another painful blow to ISWAP as it continues to suffer devastating loss of its top leadership, foot soldiers and armoury base following the sustained combine regional counter insurgency operations waged by troops of Operation Hadin Kai and the Multinational Joint Task Forces (MNJTF).

 

The source explained that there was no confirmation by the Islamic State’s media arm, which is typically quick to claim attacks but generally takes forever to confirm the deaths of its leaders.
