In Aggressive Air Operations, NAF Kills over 35 Terrorist Fighters Near Nigeria-Cameroon Border in North-east

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) conducted aggressive air operations near the Nigeria-Cameroon border, resulting in the killing of over 35 terrorist fighters. The precision air interdiction was carried out early yesterday by the Air Component of the Joint Taskforce Operation Hadin Kai, following an attempted attack on ground troops in Kumshe.

Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, the Director of Public Relations and Information for NAF, stated that the successful airstrikes were a result of intensified efforts to dominate the battlespace and deny terrorists freedom of action. The NAF acted on multiple intelligence sources to execute precision strikes, neutralizing 35 fighters at an identified assembly area.

The Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Hasan Abubakar, commended the professionalism of the aircrew and affirmed NAF's commitment to sustaining aggressive air operations to ensure the complete degradation of terrorist elements threatening Nigeria's sovereignty.
