Boko Haram militants kill at least 23 troops in Chad attack
""Once again, the nebulous Boko Haram terrorist group carried out a cowardly attack last night on our military base at Barka Tolorom. We will continue the fight with renewed determination until this threat is completely eradicated.""
""According to the United Nations, the group has killed several thousand people and displaced millions. Boko Haram has ramped up kidnappings as well as attacks on soldiers around Lake Chad in recent years.""
""Deby responded with a counter-offensive that he vowed to personally lead on the ground for two weeks. The offensive ended in February 2025, with the Chadian army claiming at the time that Boko Haram had no more sanctuary on Chadian territory.""
Boko Haram militants attacked a military base in Chad, resulting in the deaths of at least 23 security personnel and injuring many others. The assault occurred on the shores of Lake Chad, a region where Boko Haram has expanded its activities over the past decade. Chadian President Mahamat Idriss Deby condemned the attack and pledged to continue fighting against the group. Boko Haram has been responsible for thousands of deaths and displacements, and has increased its attacks and kidnappings in the area.
