Some key leaders of the terror group, the Islamic State of West African Province (ISWAP) have been killed following the air bombardment of their meeting venue by Nigerian Air Force fighter jets.
The Air Task Force of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, under the auspices of Operation RATTLE SNAKE 3, routed the terrorists at Jubillaram and Alinwa in the Northern part of Borno State, as they assembled for meetings at the two locations.
“Accordingly, the ATF scrambled its attack aircraft to engage both locations, damaging the meeting venues and neutralizing the terrorists. “The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, will sustain its air campaign to shape the battlespace in the Northeast for the effective conduct of further ground and air operations”.
