“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.”
Trump also thanked the Nigerian government for its partnership in the operation, but did not provide further details.
Al-Minuki had been under US sanctions since 2023 for his links to ISIL.
