Hindustan Times US Airstrikes Nigeria News LIVE | Nigeria’s First Reaction After US Airstrike Stuns Donald Trump

On December 25, 2025, the United States military, under orders from President Donald Trump, carried out airstrikes against Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) militants in Sokoto State, northwest Nigeria. President Trump announced the operation on his Truth Social platform, describing the strikes as “powerful and deadly” and saying they targeted militants he accused of “viciously killing … primarily innocent Christians.” U.S. Africa Command said the strikes were conducted at the request of Nigerian authorities and killed multiple ISIS fighters as part of broader security cooperation, including intelligence sharing and coordination with Nigeria. Trump also warned that more action could follow if the violence continued.
