Military reports reveal that a strike against terrorist positions in Lake Chad resulted in the neutralisation of eight terrorists and injuries to ten others. The operation, part of Operation Hadin Kai, was executed by the maritime component around 9 am on Wednesday, 28 October 2026. Support was provided by an armed unmanned aerial vehicle platform.
Preliminary assessments indicated that no terrorists escaped the strike, though ground verification was hindered by the challenging waterways. Averaging the aerial data, the military stated, "The assessment was limited to aerial surveillance because the waterways posed a major obstacle to troops’ access to the target area for ground verification."
Ongoing follow-up operations aim to evaluate the strike's effect on terrorist activities in the Lake Chad region.
