ISWAP has burnt down a Christian Village in Adamawa State after US airstrikes.
Newsone Nigeria reports that the Islamic State of West Africa Province, ISWAP, has continued to wreak havoc on Christian communities in the Northeast, Nigeria.
This comes as ISWAP burned down a Christian village in Adamawa State, northern Nigeria.
A security expert, Brant Philip, disclosed this on Thursday, January 1, 2026, in a viral video released by the terrorists.
“ISWAP released an image of one of the Christian villages in Adamawa State burning, alongside a statement saying that all Christians in Nigeria are legitimate targets, and they have an opportunity to “spare their blood” by converting to Islam or paying the jizyah tax to ISWAP,” Brant Philip wrote on X.

The move is perceived as retaliation for recent joint airstrikes by the Nigerian and United States military against a terrorist enclave in Sokoto, Nigeria.
Meanwhile, Newsone reports that United States President Donald Trump announced five days ago that the US military launched airstrikes against terrorists in Sokoto State.
