On November 8, 2026, the Nigerian Army's 33 Artillery Brigade conducted an offensive against armed groups in Dajin Madam Forest, spanning Kanam and Wase Local Government Areas in Plateau State. The operation aimed to eliminate terrorist camps and criminal elements operating in the region. According to security analyst Zagazola Makama, the offensive commenced around 11 a.m., resulting in the destruction and burning of several camps utilized by the armed groups.
The troops also dismantled structures they believed were essential to the criminals' presence in the forest, characterizing them as "life-support structures" that sustained the groups' activities. Makama reported that two armed criminals were neutralized during the operation. A video documenting the events can be viewed at https://twitter.com/zagazolamakama/status/2119656826085970293.
