The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has condemned a series of violent attacks in Northern Benin that resulted in the deaths of at least 30 soldiers. The attacks, attributed to jihadist groups, have heightened concerns over regional security, particularly along the borders with Niger and Burkina Faso, where insurgent activity has been on the rise. In a separate incident in Nigeria, a terror attack on an immigration facility in Kebbi State left four people dead. Additionally, suspected terrorists killed two worshipers in a church attack in Borno State. In Somalia, Puntland forces launched an offensive against Islamic State militants, claiming to have killed dozens and seized nine drones. The ongoing violence across the region underscores the challenges faced by security forces in combating terrorism and maintaining stability.
