Relief as Nigerian terrorists killed during ambush

The Nigerian Air Force has killed several terrorists and destroyed their logistics hub during a precision air interdiction operation in Borno State.

The operation was carried out on Sunday at Dabar Masara, a known terrorist enclave in the Southern Tumbuns, as part of ongoing efforts to disrupt terrorist activities and supply networks.

In a statement, the Director of Public Relations and Information of the NAF, Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, said the strikes followed credible intelligence indicating the presence of a terrorist workshop and sustained movement of armed fighters in the area.

According to him, the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai deployed an integrated force package to conduct coordinated intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions alongside strike operations.

Ejodame said earlier surveillance had revealed repeated terrorist movement and a large number of vehicles concealed under vegetation, confirming the location as an active logistics base.

“On the day of the operation, further surveillance validated the earlier findings, with terrorists observed manoeuvring within the location and around the identified vehicles,” he said.

He added that following positive identification and in line with the rules of engagement, the targets were engaged.

A post-operation battle damage assessment confirmed that the vehicles were destroyed and several terrorist elements neutralised.
