The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) successfully carried out airstrikes on a terrorist encampment in the Tumbuns area of Lake Chad Basin, destroying a food storage depot and killing several terrorists. The operation was conducted based on meticulous intelligence gathering that linked the location to recent attacks.
The Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) has destroyed terrorists’ food depot and killed several in airstrikes in their enclave at Jubillaram in the Tumbuns area of Lake Chad Basin . Mr Akinboyewa, an air commodore, said the NAF aircraft carried out the operations on 23 Nov on the strategic location identified through meticulous intelligence efforts. He said the location served as a critical food storage site and a sanctuary for terrorist commanders and fighters.
He added that intelligence had previously linked terrorists in the location to recent attacks, including the assault on troops in Kareto on 16 Nov. According to him, the NAF fighter jets, in response, launched a robust air interdiction mission, destroying identified structures used as storage facilities and neutralising terrorists on-site.Nigerians need credible journalism.
