Navy dismantles militants’ hideout in Cross River’s coastal settlement

The Nigerian Navy, through its ship NNS VICTORY, conducted a raid in the Ine Ikoridung coastal settlement of Cross River State, dismantling a suspected militant hideout. Lieutenant-Commander Sulaiman Bala stated that while no arrests were made, several items including weapons, clothing, and records of previously arrested militants were recovered. The operation was part of ongoing efforts to target militants operating along the Dayspring axis. The Navy claims the move was prompted by the militants' relocation to a remote area due to prior naval operations restricting their activities. The seized property and destruction of the huts aim to prevent the area from becoming a future base for militants.
