A recent airstrike carried out by the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) has resulted in the killing of several terrorist fighters and the destruction of their food storage facility.

The Director, Public Relations and Information, Nigerian Air Force (NAF), Air Commodore Olusola Akinboyewa, confirmed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.

According to him, the NAF aircraft carried out the operations on November 23 and executed precise airstrikes on the terrorist enclaves at Jubillaram in the Tumbuns area of Lake Chad Basin.

Akinboyewa said the troops had earlier conducted surveillance and reconnaissance missions before launching the airstrikes against the location of the terrorists, resulting in the death of several criminal fighters and commanders as well as the destruction of their food storage facility.

He added that intelligence had previously linked terrorists in the location to recent attacks, including the assault on troops in Kareto on Nov. 16.

The NAF spokesperson confirmed that following the airstrikes, several terrorists were killed on-site, and their ability to launch attacks was severely impacted.

“Mop-up operations using cannons ensured the complete elimination of fleeing hostile elements.

“The operation’s success was made possible by extensive Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions conducted over several days, confirming the presence of active terrorist structures camouflaged under dense vegetation.

“The destruction of the terrorist enclave, including food storage facilities, severely disrupted their logistical operations, while the neutralisation of a significant number of fighters diminished their capacity to launch future attacks,” he said.

Akinboyewa reiterated the commitment of NAF to protecting the country and ensuring all enemies of Nigeria’s prosperity and wellbeing are brought to justice.
