- The Army said Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province seized the girls while harvesting crops amid intensified clearance operations in the southern Borno axis.
- Evacuated to a secure military facility are victims aged between 15 and 20, including Fatima Shaibu and Zainab Musa, with one girl freed earlier after saying she was nursing a baby.
- President Bola Tinubu declared a security emergency, ordered mass recruitment of police and army personnel, and said `There will be no more hiding places for agents of evil` amid more than 300 children seized and over 265 still in captivity.
