The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) jet returned to Sambisa Forest in Borno State yesterday, destroying vehicle workshops, fuel and ammunition dumps.
In a statement issued yesterday, the Nigerian Air Force said: “This feat by the Nigerian Air Force came as a result of a painstaking Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) efforts by the NAF’s Unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV) and ATR-42 platforms.
“In view of the above, the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, wishes to assure all Nigerians that with these successful strikes on the insurgents, their capabilities have been further degraded to pave the way for the final onslaught by the land forces to meet the Commander-in-Chief, President Mohammadu Buhari’s directives to bring insurgency in the North-East to an end.”
