According to reports, 60 ISWAP terrorists, including three important commanders, have been taken prisoner by Boko Haram fighters.
The most recent conflict between the rival terrorist organizations apparently took place on Monday.
Zagazola Makama, a security analyst and counter-insurgency specialist in Lake Chad, revealed this in a post on his social media account on Wednesday.
The commanders of ISWAP were detained in Borno State, according to Zagozola, who named them as Abubakar Saddiq, Abou Maimuna, and Malam Idris.
He claimed that ISWAP was compelled to seek sanctuary in more heavily guarded hiding places in the Kukawa, Madayi, and Kwatan Mota axis after the Boko Haram Buduma groups, who had the upper hand against ISWAP in the most recent turn of events, captured the majority of their enclaves.
