Most of the attacks happened in three north-eastern states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe.

The sect also carried out attacks in neighboring countries like Cameroon, Chad, and Niger.

The Nigerian security forces and regional forces from Cameroon, Chad, and Niger have made important progress in pushing the sect out of the towns and villages of northeast Nigeria and the broader Lake Chad Basin region.

So far, the sect has been dislodged from their major stronghold in Sambisa, with members fleeing in different directions.
