 Mexico agrees to host Iran’s World Cup team after U.S. declines to accommodate squad, Sheinbaum says    Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday that Mexico has agreed to host the Iranian national football team during the upcoming World Cup after the United States declined to accommodate the squad. Sheinbaum said the decision followed a request from FIFA, which sought an alternative arrangement after U.S. officials indicated they did not want Iran’s team staying in the country for the duration of the tournament, even though Iran is scheduled to play all of its group-stage matches on U.S. soil. “We have no reason to deny them the possibility of staying in Mexico,” Sheinbaum said during her daily press conference, adding that Mexico accepted the request in coordination with tournament organizers.

 TROOPS ARREST SUSPECTED TERRORISTS, INFORMANT, DRUG PEDDLERS; RESCUE KIDNAPPED VICTIMS, RECOVER EXPLOSIVES IN SUSTAINED OPERATIONS


Troops of the Joint Task Force (North East), Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK), have continued to record significant operational successes across the theatre, including the arrest of suspected terrorists and their collaborators, rescue of kidnapped civilians, and recovery of explosive devices during coordinated operations.


In a notable development, troops of OPHK deployed at Ngamdu, while conducting some operational  engagements in Ngamdu town, apprehended two suspected terrorists identified as Haruna Adamu (32) and Ibrahim Adamu (20). Preliminary investigations indicate that the suspects fled from Zamfara State into Yobe State. Items recovered from them include a smartphone, keypad phone, power bank, identification card, suspected illicit substances, charms, and other personal effects. The suspects have since been handed over to the appropriate authorities for further investigation. In a related operation, troops of 254 Battalion under Headquarters Sector 2 arrested a suspected Boko Haram/ISWAP informant, Ali Muhammad (30), at Ngamdu Market. The suspect, who had been on the unit’s watchlist, was found in possession of su.s of cash, a keypad mobile phone, a wallet containing identification cards, charms, a knife, and an exercise book containing phone numbers of suspected terrorist contacts. He has been handed over to Sector 2 Headquarters for detailed interrogation. The arrest is considered a major disruption to the intelligence network of terrorist elements operating within the area. Similarly, troops of OPHK , during a night operation around Mubi general area of Adamawa State, arrested five suspected drug peddlers found in possession of various items, including ammunition. The suspects are currently in custody undergoing further investigation.


In another operation, troops of OPHK deployed in Madagali, in collaboration with members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF), responded swiftly to a distress call on a kidnapping incident in Madagali Local Government Area of Adamawa State. The joint team successfully rescued two kidnapped victims, Barnabas Apagu (12) and Ruth Apagu (10), while efforts are ongoing to secure the safe release of other abducted persons still in captivity. Additionally, troops of OPHK,  deployed in Kukareta area of Yobe State, recovered a hand grenade suspected to have been abandoned by fleeing terrorists. The explosive device was safely secured in line with established procedures.


The Military High Command  commends the troops for their gallantry and sacrifices,  urging them to sustain the operational tempo. Equally, reassures the public of its unwavering commitment to sustaining offensive operations aimed at degrading terrorist capabilities, protecting lives and property,  restoring enduring peace and  economic stability across the North East region.  Members of the public are encouraged to continue providing timely and credible information to security agencies to support ongoing operations.
