A deadly clash between Boko Haram fighters and members of the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) has reportedly left more than 100 terrorists dead. The two rival terror groups engaged in a fierce internal battle in the Lake Chad region, according to security sources familiar with the incident.

The violent confrontation is believed to have erupted over control of territory and resources, as both groups continue to struggle for dominance in the region. Witnesses reported intense fighting, with heavy weapons used by both factions.

This latest internal conflict highlights the deep division and rivalry between Boko Haram and ISWAP, despite both being extremist organizations. Security analysts say the battle could weaken the groups but also warn that such clashes can lead to renewed attacks on civilians as they seek to re-establish strength.

Military officials in the area are monitoring the situation and believe the confrontation may create opportunities to intensify counter-terrorism efforts. However, communities across the northeast remain fearful as the battle may escalate into wider violence.

The fight between the two groups serves as a reminder that internal terrorist rivalries can be just as deadly as attacks on security forces and innocent citizens. Authorities have urged residents to stay vigilant as intelligence operations continue in the region.
