  • On December 1–2, heavy clashes took place across Northwest Region, leaving three or more dead in Mankon, Mezam Division.[169]
  • On December 3, separatists attacked Cameroonian soldiers guarding a water tank in Kumbo. The next day, soldiers burned dozens of houses in the locality of Romajia.[170]
  • On December 5, government soldiers killed 7 civilians and burned around 15 houses in Meluf, Kumbo.[171]
  • On December 6, soldiers burned 19 houses in Kikiakom. Unverified reports claimed that two separatists were killed in Mbukui.[171]
  • On December 8, 12 or more students of the University of Bamenda were kidnapped on graduation day. The kidnappers released a video saying that all the students would be released, and that the incident should serve as a warning to other students to uphold the school boycott.[172]
  • On December 10, a teacher was killed by unidentified gunmen in Njinikejem, Belo.[173]
  • On December 11, a teenager was killed during a battle between government forces and separatists in Bamenda.[174]
  • On December 12, clashes along the Buea-Kumba Highway left travellers stranded on both sides.[175]
  • On December 13, armed men seized the residence of Gabsa Nyagha Sixtus, a coordinator of the recently formed disarmament committee, in Balikumbat. After sending away all civilians, the armed men set the building on fire. Sixtus had been appointed less than a week prior to the attack.[176]
  • Between December 14 and 15, heavy clashes took place in Bamenda. A battle was fought in the Mankon neighborhood, where government soldiers burned down houses and stores. During the fighting, separatist fighters destroyed several police vans.[177] The military claimed to have killed seven armed separatists in the battles, while itself suffering four seriously wounded. The army commander of the region accused the separatists of hiding among civilians, while locals accused the military of shooting indiscriminately.[178]
  • On December 15, at least five separatists were summarily executed by unknown perpetrators, raising speculations of separatist infighting.[179]
  • On December 16, a policeman was killed by suspected separatists in Ndop.[180]
  • On December 18, at least six students and a teacher were kidnapped from three different schools in Bamenda.[181]
  • On December 21, ADF General Ivo Mbah was killed during a military raid in Kumba.[182]
  • On December 22, a Cameroonian soldier was killed in Mbengwi, Momo Division.[183] In Bangourain, Noun Division (roughly five kilometers outside Southern Cameroons), attackers burned down over 60 houses, killed one person and kidnapped several more.[184] While the government blamed separatists, the separatists claimed the attack was a false flag operation by the government to make Cameroonian Francophones more eager to fight on; the ADF has made a point of not attacking outside the borders of Southern Cameroons.[185] In Ekondo-Titi, a battle between separatists and security forces left two separatists dead.[186]
  • On December 24, clashes took place in Bamali,[187] Buea, Muyuka, Bamenda, Bambalang and Babessi.[188] In Ndu, gendarmes killed an intellectually disabled man.[189]
  • On December 26, two suspected separatists were lynched by villagers in Bangourain.[185]
  • On December 28, government forces launched an attack to destroy a wall between Bangulan and Bangourain, erected and controlled by separatists.[190] In Bamenda, a soldier was decapitated by separatists as the warring parties clashed.[191] In Binka, Nkambé, government soldiers killed at least six separatists and arrested one.[192]
  • On December 31, the presidents of Cameroon and Ambazonia addressed the ongoing conflict in their end of year speeches. President Paul Biya of Cameroon promised to "neutralize" all separatists who refused to disarm, while emphasizing that anyone who drops their guns can be reintegrated into society.[193] President Samuel Ikome Sako of Ambazonia said that the separatists would switch from a defensive to an offensive strategy in the war, and announced that a Mobile Wing Police would be created to capture territory and defeat government militias. He also condemned anyone engaged in kidnappings of civilians, and promised to fight back against anyone involved in such practices.[194] The same night, separatist fighters attacked the convoy of the Governor of the Northwest Region, injuring at least one government soldier.[195] The Cameroonian Army also announced the killing of Lekeaka Oliver, Field Marshall of the Red Dragons militia, in Lebialem; the killing was denied by the Interim Government of Ambazonia,[196] and was also denied by sources within the Cameroonian Army. Oliver resurfaced in a video a week later, proving that reports of his death were false.[197]
