A Cholera outbreak has reportedly killed some terror fighters of the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) in the Timbuktu Triangle at the heart of terrorists’ strongholds in Borno State, according to security sources.
It was gathered that the disease has spread across several terrorist camps, exposing poor sanitary conditions and limited access to medical care within the group’s hideouts.
They attributed the worsening health situation to sustained military offensives by Operation Hadin Kai, which have disrupted ISWAP’s logistics network.
According to the sources, troops have intercepted large quantities of medical supplies intended for the terrorists, limiting the group’s ability to treat wounded and sick members.
The sources also alleged that fellow insurgents executed two ISWAP fighters who contracted cholera after attempts to manage their condition at Kimba village failed.
