Trump: US Forces Kill Islamic State Senior Command in Nigeria

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The Islamic genocide of Christians in Nigeria is one the great crimes against humanity. Made worse still by the silence of the global left — obsessed only with Jews defending themselves and their homeland.

Last night, Trump took action.

Nigeria and the United States eliminated a senior Islamic State (IS) leader in a joint-operation.

Abu-Bilal al-Minuki was described by US President Donald Trump as the “second in command of ISIS globally” and “the most active terrorist in the world”.

IS has radically shifted in recent years, with around 90% of its attacks now taking place in sub-Saharan Africa. Its Nigeria-based branch is by far the most active.

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu said the two countries had carried out a “daring joint operation that dealt a heavy blow” to IS.

Al‑Minuki was declared a Specially Designated Global Terrorist by Washington in 2023.

He was killed along with “several of his lieutenants” during a strike on his compound in the Lake Chad Basin, a huge region of waterways and swampland shared by Nigeria, Chad, Niger and Cameroon.

“Tonight, at my direction, brave American forces and the Armed Forces of Nigeria flawlessly executed a meticulously planned and very complex mission to eliminate the most active terrorist in the world from the battlefield. Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, second in command of ISIS…” – President Trump

US and Nigerian forces kill top ISIS leader hiding out in Africa in ‘very complex mission,’ Trump says

By Victor Nava, NY Post, May 15, 2026:

President Trump announced Friday night that US and Nigerian forces killed ISIS’s second in command in a “very complex mission.”

“Tonight, at my direction, brave American forces and the Armed Forces of Nigeria flawlessly executed a meticulously planned and very complex mission to eliminate the most active terrorist in the world from the battlefield,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, second in command of ISIS globally, thought he could hide in Africa, but little did he know we had sources who kept us informed on what he was doing,” the president continued. “He will no longer terrorize the people of Africa, or help plan operations to target Americans.

Trump thanked the government of Nigeria for partnering with the US on the operation.

“GOD BLESS AMERICA!” the president’s post concluded.

Trump announced the operation just hours after returning to the White House following a three-day trip to Beijing.

Nigeria has been plagued by violence carried out by multiple armed militant groups, including Boko Haram and Islamic State of West Africa Province.
