Other MoA event in Nigeria on Wed 18th March 2026

Notebooks captured by Nigerian troops from slain ISWAP fighters in Mallam Fatori show the list of ISWAP militants mobilized for the attack, their roles, their weapons and their allocated ammunition. This level of organization was also noted in Puntland in IS-Somal, the cardboard piece (first image) was discovered in an IS-Somal position, it shows the same thing and also includes the cameraman, who has allocated memory cards instead of ammunition. Islamic State provinces manage themselves like actual states (it's in the name), they have their own police, military police, ministries and more, they're not only an armed group but they strive to become an alternate governing entity.
