Nigerian Air Force Destroys Boko Haram's Logistics Base In Borno

 

The Nigerian Air Force, NAF, says its Air Task Force of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has destroyed an Islamic State of West Africa Province, ISWAP logistics base near Arege in the northern part of Borno.

 

NAF Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, who disclosed this in a statement on Sunday, said the operation was conducted on Saturday.

“The BDA revealed that the Alpha Jet’s bomb strikes scored direct hits on the target location, totally destroying the vehicles and other logistics items, thereby further degrading the terrorists’ capabilities,” he said.

 

Mr Daramola said at the end of the attack, the entire area was engulfed in fire and terrorists in the location were neutralised.

 

The spokesman said the NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, would sustain its efforts to completely destroy all remnants of the terrorists in the North East.
