  "summary": "The Defence Headquarters announced that attacks across military theatres of operation fell by 73.3 per cent in October 2026. According to Punch Nigeria, Maj. Gen. Michael Onoja, the Director of Defence Media Operations, disclosed that 98 incidents were recorded in October compared to 367 in September. This reduction represents 269 fewer attacks in one month, a change Onoja attributed to the sustained efforts of troops across various theatres.\n\nA breakdown of the October incidents shows that Operation Enduring Peace recorded the highest number with 29 attacks. This was followed by Operation Hadin Kai with 27, Operation Fansan Yamma with 24, and Operation Whirl Stroke with 12. Additionally, Punch Nigeria reported that Operation Udo Ka recorded four attacks, while Operation Delta Safe and Operation Savannah Shield each recorded one attack.",
