NAS forces captured the SSPDF headquarters at Longoyo-Lobonok on 7 May 2026 after government troops attacked a NAS position in Lobonok Payam on 5 May. The NAS leadership alleges Vice President James Wani Igga orchestrated the attack under cover of a home visit to clear the area for a private gold mining project. More than twelve SSPDF soldiers were killed and fourteen AK-47 rifles seized. NAS lost four soldiers across both engagements. The movement warned Lobonok residents to avoid the Juba road and cautioned mining companies against deals with the Juba regime.
