Operation Hurricane Barbarossa

Operation Hurricane Barbarossa

On September 14, 2008, Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) inaugurated Operation Hurricane Barbarossa with an ongoing string of militant attacks to bring down the oil industry in Rivers State.[1]

On September 27, a week after declaring an oil war and sustaining heavy losses at the hands of the Nigerian armed forces, the group declared a ceasefire starting the next until "further notice."
