美国对尼日利亚索科托州的空袭在区域不稳定和平民暴力中针对与ISIS有联系的好战分子。 U.S. airstrikes in Nigeria’s Sokoto State targeted ISIS-linked militants amid regional instability and civilian violence.

据美国官员和总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)说,美国于2025年12月25日在尼日利亚西北部对索科托州的伊斯兰国家附属武装分子进行了空袭。 The U.S. conducted airstrikes in northwest Nigeria on December 25, 2025, targeting Islamic State-affiliated militants in Sokoto State, according to U.S. officials and President Donald Trump. 这些袭击是与尼日利亚部队协调进行的,目的是扰乱极端主义活动,应对针对平民、特别是基督教徒的暴力行为。 The strikes, carried out in coordination with Nigerian forces, aimed to disrupt extremist activities and respond to violence against civilians, particularly Christians. 目标群体可能是伊斯兰国萨赫勒省(又称拉库拉瓦省),在2023年政变之后,由于区域不稳定,该省从尼日尔扩大到尼日利亚。 The targeted group is likely the Islamic State Sahel Province (ISSP), also known as Lakurawa, which has expanded from Niger into Nigeria amid regional instability following a 2023 coup. 虽然美国强调战略合作, 尼日利亚民间社会领袖质疑行动的合法性, 声称行动缺乏政府正式批准。 While the U.S. emphasized strategic cooperation, Nigerian civil society leaders questioned the operation’s legality, claiming it lacked formal government approval. 其全面影响仍未得到核实,分析家注意到暴力既影响到基督教群体,也影响到穆斯林群体。 The full impact remains unverified, and analysts note the violence affects both Christian and Muslim communities.
