 PRESS RELEASE TERRORISTS RESORT TO PROPAGANDA AS OPERATION HADIN KAI SUSTAINS DECISIVE ONSLAUGHT The attention of the Joint Task Force (North East) Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK) has been drawn to a renewed propaganda campaign by remnants of Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), who are currently circulating old photographs and recycled media reports in a desperate attempt to mislead the public into believing they retain the capability to unleash mayhem on troops and law-abiding citizens. One such recycled publication is a 9 July 2020 report by YNaija, which falsely resurfaces with bodies of soldiers and claims to be an ambush on Nigerian soldiers.

The public is hereby informed that these materials are not recent and do ...
