[PUNCHNG] The Defence Headquarters has, on Thursday, declared nine more gunnies wanted.
Unlike previous declarations, these individuals were named without the inclusion of a bounty.
The wanted gunnies are Abu Khadijah, Abdurrahman, Dadi Gumba, also known as Abu Muhammed, Usman Kanin Shehu, Abu Yusuf, Musa Wa'a, Ibrahim Suyeka, BA Sulhu, and Idris Taklakse.
The DHQ also confirmed the emergence of a new terrorist group known as 'Lukarawas.' The group is primarily based in the northwestern part of Nigeria.
Good to know — a new entry for the archives.
The Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Edward Buba revealed this while briefing journalists on the military operations in Abuja.
Buba explained that the new terror group emerged from the Republic of Niger following the coup that led to the breakdown of military cooperation between Nigeria and Niger.
The gunnies began infiltrating northern parts of Sokoto and Kebbi States, primarily from the Niger Republic and Mali, particularly after the coup in Niger.
He said that before the coup, there were joint border operations with Nigerien security forces, which had kept the gunnies at bay.
''This new group that has penetrated the northwestern part of the country, known as the Lukarawas, is affiliated with ISIS in the Sahelian region. It is indeed the first attempt by Sahelian jihadists to establish a foothold in our country.
[REUTERS] Nigeria's military has warned of a new krazed killer group, Lakurawas, infiltrating the country's northwest region from neighbouring Niger and Mali, its spokesperson said on Thursday.
Defense spokesperson Major-General Edward Buba said the group, an affiliate of militias operating in the Sahel region ... North Africa's answer to the Pak tribal areas... , has been active in northwest Sokoto and Kebbi states. The ideology of the group is not known.
So possibly jihadis, possibly non-jihadi bandits or old-fashioned Communist insurrectionists. How exciting.
"They began an incursion into northern parts of Sokoto and Kebbi states from the Niger and Mali axis, particularly after the coup in Niger Republic," Buba said in statement.
The influx of Lakurawas is linked to the July 2023 coup in Niger, which disrupted joint military patrols along the border between Nigeria and Niger.
While patrols have since resumed, the military remains vigilant against further infiltration, Buba said.
Nigeria has been grappling with a long-running insurgency in its northeast, primarily driven by the Islamist gangBoko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... and its offshoot, Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... West Africa Province (ISWAP).
But the emergence of Lakurawas highlights a growing security threat in the country's northwest, a region already prone to attacks by armed gangs and kidnappings for ransom.
Buba reported that the military had killed 163 krazed killers, arrested 82, and rescued at least 80 kidnapped individuals in the northwest region last month.

They were killed in a military offensive against the terror group in the region's Walassa locality Wednesday night, a senior military official in the region said.
"They (Boko Haram) tried to fight back when our troops attacked, but they were overcome. Several of them escaped with wounds. Our forces will continue to secure the region and protect civilians against the terrorists," the official, who asked not to be named, told Xinhua.

Note to Antifa in North America - Trump can not be reelected. You try again what you did in 2020, he doesn't have to calculate what actions he takes will effect the 2028 election. I suspect he'll do on to you what Bibi is doing to Hamas.
A statement from the ministry says the severity of the injuries are unclear.
The Foreign Ministry also says that Israelis are currently out of touch, and that it’s advising Israeli citizens not to leave their hotels.
The National Security Council issues a similar instruction, while calling on those who are out in public not display any Israeli or Jewish symbols.
Assailants shouting ‘free Palestine’ brutally attack Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam
[IsraelTimes] Fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv report being attacked in the streets of Amsterdam after the Israeli soccer team’s loss to local club Ajax, with video from the Dutch city showing brutal assaults by masked assailants, some of whom carry Palestinian flags and shout “free Palestine.”
Reports say a number of Israelis were injured, but there are no immediate figures.
Some of the targeted Israelis’ passports were stolen by the attackers, according to Hebrew media outlets.
Some horrifying "just anti-Zionism" in Amsterdam tonight as Israeli soccer fans are lynched by huge pro-Palestine mobs. Where are the police?! pic.twitter.com/HMwQgCwJMi
Netanyahu stresses the importance of the Dutch government ensuring the safety of all Israelis in the country and tells Schoof that he treats the premeditated attack seriously.
Premeditated? Another project for Mossad, if the Dutch don't handle it quickly.
He also asks for increased security for the Jewish community in the Netherlands.
The premier thanks Schoof for his statements on the attack, which he called antisemitic.
Planes are on their way to the Netherlands to bring home Israelis, including those injured.
The PMO says that Netanyahu was in direct contact with the Foreign Ministry and his military secretary from the time that the incident began.
[IsraelTimes] There are still three Israelis missing in the Netherlands, says the Foreign Ministry.Additional phone lines have been added at the Israeli embassy in the country and the Foreign Ministry situation room.
Multiple outlets are reporting that anti-Israel mobs are chasing down Israelis and savagely beating them on the streets of Amsterdam Thursday following a soccer game between Maccabi Tel Aviv FC and Amsterdam's Ajax.
As of this writing, dozens of extremely disturbing videos are being posted to X depicting violent beatings as individuals are surrounded and then pummeled.
Here's what we know about the Amsterdam pogrom:
➡️Around 3,000 Israeli fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv flew to Amsterdam to watch a game against AFC Ajax. ➡️ An ambush was waiting for them at various points outside the stadium and around the city as they returned by train from the…
… as they returned by train from the game.
➡️ Footage circulating on social media shows fans being beaten and chased with knives.
➡️ Dutch authorities say 10 Israelis were injured and they have lost contact with two individuals.
➡️ About 57 suspects have reportedly been arrested.
➡️ Israel has dispatched two rescue planes to bring Israelis home.
➡️ The situation is still ongoing with hundreds of Israelis being instructed to lock themselves in hotel rooms and not go outside.
WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE INCIDENT
A Europa League football match between Ajax Amsterdam and Maccabi Tel Aviv took place on Thursday night.
Clashes broke out between pro-Palestinian demonstrators and Dutch police before the fixture who had reported "tensions" in several parts of the city in the run-up to the match, which Ajax won 5-0.
In an earlier post on X, police said that a Palestinian flag had been pulled from a facade by "currently unknown persons."
Police said later that several hundred Maccabi fans had gathered on Dam Square, where the atmosphere was reported to have been tense but then calmer.
A pro-Palestinian rally demonstrating against the Israeli football club's visit had initially been scheduled to take place near the stadium but was moved by city authorities for security reasons.
Clashes had taken place as part of the group of demonstrators tried to make their way to the stadium but were stopped by riot police, who were pelted with "heavy fireworks."
Police said 57 people were arrested and that due to unrest, police were still visible in the city.

Look no further than the modern day agnostic Liberal Pacifists agenda, which has allowed the 2nd Islamic invasion. Its use of OPEN BORDERS, has allowed this Evil to take root in many too areas.
Seriously.
ISLAM's own book of faith, the Qur'an, (written about 400 to 500+ years after the Jewish Old Testament), clearly calls for those of the Islam/Muslim faith to make violence on all not of Islam.
Which majority of the Islamic faith have a well documented history of thus doing.
#7
Every fourth person walking the street is a Muslim who has come to attack Jews. Me and several hundred other fans are besieged in the hotel, the police don’t allow us to leave. They just want to fly home.’
#14
Richie Torres, House Dem leader has tweeted his harsh condemnation of this.
What needs to be introduced in Congress is a 'blood libel' law holding people who misreport events (like the false report of Israel bombing a hospital) libel in some way.

A little tough to chew Randy but possibly not too far from the truth. Soccer fans do get drunk and rowdy and look for someone to fight.
#17
Lord Garth NO that is the exact censorship the deep state wants
Tye problem is Muslim migration
The answer is shutting the borders to muslims, deporting those not yet citizens
And then banning the practise of sharia law by defining it as an enemy ideology with which we are at war and prosecuting any that practise it for treason
Existing treason laws will ensure compliance or emigration of the muslim colonists

To summarize ACA Joe’s various really believable disguises:
The proper response to the kind of trash-talking done by all other soccer fans around the world is to collect up knives, clubs, iron bars, steel-toed shoes, and thousands of one’s dearest friends, and rampage for hours through the streets beating up anyone who looks Jewish or Jewish-adjacent.
And the proper response of the police and the public is to stand by and do nothing until the prime minister and the king start asking questions, then arrest a couple dozen people who will mostly later be turned loose for lack of evidence.
They do not rise to the level of barbarians. ACA Joe. the little pipsqueak who finds that admirable and overly exciting, do not rise to the level of the scum that floats in the gutter.

I can live with it, Frank G. That group identity of paid vicious idiots has far to go before his driblets deserve permanent space in the Rantburg archives. I’ve spam-copped a bunch of his droppings today alone.
New sheriff in town? Seattle Police immediately shut down an Antifa election night riot group and made mass arrests after they started vandalizing the former CHAZ area. This is in contrast to 2020 where the mayor told police to evacuate police station. https://t.co/Nff4RNfuoP
What? No Autumn of Love?
"Our intent here is to get back to a normal First Amendment event without criminal activity," SPD said. "The only way we're going to interfere is if criminal acts are committed, or if you interfere with the police taking action."
On Tuesday night, Seattle police shut down an Antifa ...the armed wing of the Democratic Party... direct action near the deadly CHAZ/CHOP anarchist zone in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. Several left-wing bully boyz were arrested on criminal charges, which resulted in the group dispersing for the evening, foiling Antifa's plan to riot on Election Day. The charges varied from property damage to defying police orders.
Seattle police maintained a substantial presence on the ground, preventing Antifa from conducting serious acts of illegal activity in the same neighborhood the bully boyz forcefully seized control of during the 2020 Saint George Floyd ...The patron saint of Minneapolis... riots. Nearly 100 SPD officers followed the group on bikes and cars after they vandalized property and marched unlawfully in the street. Police issued announcements to the group throughout the night over an LRAD speaker and a police helicopter circled the bully boyz demanding the agitators remain lawful over a loudspeaker. At least five arrests were made, police said.
Antifa arrived at Cal Anderson Park around 6 pm dressed in their black bloc hard boy uniforms. The group was outfitted with helmets, gas masks, goggles, and other riot gear while concealing their identities under black facial coverings. While Antifa gathered prior to the march, police said the bully boyz allegedly committed acts of property damage by graffitiing the park with pro-Paleostinian messages and the group's anarchist symbol.
Antifa had posted an event flier around downtown Seattle a few days prior, encouraging residents in the community to "show their displeasure in the streets" on Election Day. The group advised supporters to wear black bloc and "bring a crew" to protest former President Donald Trump ...They hit him with slander, they impeached him twice. Nancy Pelosi tore up his State of the Union address on national TV. They stole an election and put his adherents in jail. They vilified him. They couldn't crucify him, so they shot him. Still, they can't keep him down... and Vice President Kamala Harris who got her start in politix between former Oakland mayor Willie Brown's' knees , adding that a victory for either candidate "is a win for genocide abroad and a militarized police state at home."
Immediately after the march began, Seattle police swooped in to make several targeted arrests outside the SPD East Precinct and gave official orders to Antifa, demanding they leave the road. The first group of arrested individuals allegedly committed property damage at the park, police said. The incident escalated when the bully boy group refused to exit the road, resulting in additional arrests. Under Washington state law, it is illegal to protest in the street if authorities declare the group is infringing on the rights or safety of others.
Antifa regrouped following the first round of arrests and committed further acts of property damage while marching along 13th Ave and Pine St. Seattle Police proceeded to trail the group and informed the bully boyz over the LRAD speaker that, while the department respects First Amendment rights, it will not accept criminal behavior. Officers then moved in to make another targeted arrest.
"Our intent here is to get back to a normal First Amendment event without criminal activity," SPD said over the LRAD. "The only way we're going to interfere is if criminal acts are committed, or if you interfere with the police taking action. Our purpose here is to make sure that this is a safe event for everybody and to keep the streets clear."
During the arrest, several members of Antifa hurled threats at officers, including calls for them to be killed. "This f*cking neighborhood would kill you if we had the chance," one hard boy said. "Get the f*ck out of here, pigs! Go f*cking die."
This arrest resulted in Antifa reconvening at Cal Anderson Park around 7:30 pm, where the bully boyz chose to disperse for the evening after their initial group of around 30 to 40 black bloc members had dwindled to about a dozen.
[FoxNews] Justice Department unseals charges against Iranian asset
The Justice Department says it has thwarted an Iranian plot to kill President-elect Donald Trump in the weeks leading up to the election.
A criminal complaint filed in federal court in New York City says an unnamed official in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps had asked Farhad Shakeri, 51, of Iran, in September to "focus on surveilling, and, ultimately, assassinating, former President of the United States, Donald J. Trump."
"There are few actors in the world that pose as grave a threat to the national security of the United States as does Iran," Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. "The Justice Department has charged an asset of the Iranian regime who was tasked by the regime to direct a network of criminal associates to further Iran’s assassination plots against its targets, including President-elect Donald Trump.
"We have also charged and arrested two individuals who we allege were recruited as part of that network to silence and kill, on U.S. soil, an American journalist who has been a prominent critic of the regime," Garland added. "We will not stand for the Iranian regime’s attempts to endanger the American people and America’s national security."
The Justice Department says Shakeri, who remains at large and is believed to be living in Iran, "immigrated to the United States as a child and was deported in or about 2008 after serving 14 years in prison for a robbery conviction."
"Shakeri has informed law enforcement that he was tasked on Oct. 7, 2024, with providing a plan to kill President-elect Donald J. Trump," it added.
*Ring Ring* “Hello? Hello, can you hear me? I’m calling from America and I need to speak to a Mr. Shakeri — Mr. Farhad Shakeri? The Mossad says he lives at this phone number.”
“No, no — there is no Shakeri here. This is the Alavitabar household. We don’t know any Americans.”
“Voice match says you are Mr. Farhad Shakeri. The Mossad gave us recordings from your cell phone last week. You called your mother at 4:03 p.m. on Thursday, and then you spoke to your father’s second younger brother, Bakhtiar, on Friday after breakfast, at 10:17. Silver tongued devil, that one. He’s lying about that thing he promised, though, so don’t give him any money for it. *silence* So, Farhad — may I call you Farhad? I feel like we're already such good friends — tell us about this plot you were hired for, to kill Donald Trump.”
Trump was referred to in court filings as "Victim-4."
"According to Shakeri, during his meeting with IRGC Official-I on or about October 7, 2024, IRGC Official-I directed Shakeri to provide a plan within seven days to kill Victim-4. If Shakeri was unable to put forth a plan within that timeframe, IRGC Official-I continued, the IRGC would pause its plan to kill Victim-4 until after the U.S. Presidential elections, because IRGC Official-I assessed that Victim-4 would lose the election and, afterward, it would be easier to assassinate Victim-4," the documents said.
What, did the Justice Department send a delegation to Tehran to interview the guy in his kitchen? It’s the kind of thing the Mossad would do, to be sure, but it seems out of left field for the US Justice Department.
"[Shakeri] also stated he was tasked with surveilling two Jewish American citizens residing in New York City and offered $500,000 by an IRGC official for the murder of either victim. He was also tasked with targeting Israeli tourists in Sri Lanka," the Justice Department added.
Federal prosecutors have also charged and arrested Carlisle Rivera, 49, of Brooklyn, New York; and Jonathon Loadholt, 36, of Staten Island, New York, "in connection with their alleged involvement in a plot to murder a U.S. citizen of Iranian origin in New York."
A law enforcement source briefed on the investigation tells Fox News that the Iranian American is Masih Alinejad.
Ms Alinejad is an Iranian opposition activist and journalist for the VOA Persian News Service who has been living in exile in New York City. This is not the first Iranian plot against her…
"At Shakeri’s instruction, Loadholt and Rivera have spent months surveilling a U.S. citizen of Iranian origin residing in the United States (Victim-1). Victim-1 is an outspoken critic of the Iranian regime and has been the target of multiple prior plots for kidnapping and/or murder directed by the Government of Iran," the Justice Department said. "In exchange for Shakeri’s promise of $100,000, Rivera and Loadholt repeatedly sought to locate Victim-1 for murder."
Prosecutors say that during their efforts to locate and kill Alinejad, "Shakeri, Loadholt, and Rivera shared messages about their progress and photographs relating to their scheme.
"For example, in or about February 2024, Rivera and Loadholt messaged about an incoming payment from Shakeri, and then traveled to Fairfield University, where Victim-1 was scheduled to appear, and took photographs on campus," according to the Justice Department. "In one voice note, Shakeri told Rivera that Victim-1 spent most of her time in particular locations of her home, and told Rivera that ‘you just gotta have patience … You gotta wait and have patience to catch her either going in the house or coming out, or following her out somewhere and taking care of it. Don’t think about going in. In is a suicide move.’"
All three suspects are now facing charges of murder-for-hire, conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire and money laundering conspiracy, which carry maximum penalties of 10 to 20 years in prison.
Shakeri has also been charged with conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization, providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization and conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and sanctions against the Government of Iran, which each carry a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison, according to prosecutors.
Shakeri held the conversations with FBI agents because he was hoping to obtain a sentence reduction for a person who is imprisoned in the United States, it said.
