Chief of Air Staff (CAS) Air Marshal Hasan Bala Abubakar emphasized the importance of adhering to international humanitarian law (IHL) for operational effectiveness during the closing ceremony of the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Civilian Harm Mitigation training in Abuja. CAS highlighted that protecting civilians in conflict zones strengthens trust, cooperation, and intelligence gathering, contributing to stability.
The CAS stated that IHL is not a hindrance but a force multiplier. The NAF had earlier launched the Civilian Harm Mitigation Action Plan to prioritize civilian protection.
Air Vice Marshal Ibikunle Daramola and NAF Spokesman Air Cdre Ehimen Ejodame also stressed the significance of IHL in enhancing operational outcomes.
