U.S. to send 200 troops to Nigeria for training, intelligence, and tech support against Islamist militants.
The United States will deploy about 200 military personnel to Nigeria to train Nigerian forces in countering Islamist militants, marking a significant expansion of U.S. military involvement in West Africa.
The troops, who will not engage in combat, will provide training, intelligence support, and technical guidance to enhance Nigeria’s counterterrorism capabilities.
The move follows increased U.S. concern over rising violence by groups like Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa Province, especially in Nigeria’s northwest, and comes amid pressure on Nigeria to improve its security response.
The deployment builds on prior U.S. advisory roles and recent airstrikes, reflecting a broader strategy to strengthen regional stability and counter transnational threats.
