Air strikes by Nigerian Air Force (NAF) aircraft under Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK) have continued to decimate terrorists and their hideouts in the Tumbuns near Lake chad.

The Nigerian Air Force spokesman, Air Vice-Marshal Edward Gabkwet, disclosed this in a statement on Monday.

He said: “These particular strikes, conducted at a location Northwest of Arina Woje in the Tumbuns on 24 March 24, became necessary after intelligence revealed the presence of terrorists hideouts at the location.

“Intelligence had also confirmed an activation of terrorists’ activities around clusters of structures concealed under trees near the location. The need to attack the location thus became imperative.

“After the strikes, a post-strike Battle Damage Assessment revealed several terrorists were neutralised and their hideouts set ablaze, thereby degrading their capabilities to attack surface forces.

“These strikes have also degraded the capabilities of terrorist elements operating in the region to attack innocent civilians residing near Arina Woje in Borno State.”
