Over 33 Boko Haram targets have been attacked by the air component of Operation LAFIYA DOLE with about 1,700 flight hours recorded in the past four months, the Nigerian Air Force has said.
According to Daramola, the achievements were recorded in line with sustained efforts towards eliminating remnants of Boko Haram Terrorists and other terrorists’ groups in the northeast. “The Commander noted that the ATF had continued to pursue its mandate of contributing to the total defeat of the BHTs in order to bring peace to the North East.
Daramola said Abubakar noted that the security challenges facing the nation were obstacles to the country’s developmental aspirations that could only be surmounted through collective efforts, adding that the NAF, through the ATF, had continued to perform very critical roles in providing the much needed air support required for ground operations.
