MNJTF Troops Repel Terrorists Attack On Military Base In Darak, Neutralise 10 Terrorists
The Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai has executed devastating airstrikes on a terrorist enclave north of Chiralia, within the notorious Timbuktu Triangle killing scores of terrorists.
Deputy Director of Public Relations and Information, Group Captain, Kabiru Ali in a statement issued Thursday said the precision airstrikes, conducted over the weekend, resulted in the neutralisation of multiple terrorists and the destruction of three gun trucks, significantly disrupting terrorists activities in the region.
“The operation was initiated following actionable intelligence from ground troops, which tracked three terrorist gun trucks moving from Sabon Gari toward Chiralia.
“Responding swiftly, the Air Component deployed fighter jets for an Air Interdiction (AI) mission. Upon arrival at the target location, NAF pilots identified multiple terrorists and their 3 gun trucks concealed under trees.
“With precision and lethality, the NAF aircraft engaged the targets, unleashing rockets and cannons that obliterated two of the vehicles.
“As the insurgents attempted to reposition the third gun truck, a follow-up strike was executed, destroying it completely. The overwhelming firepower set all targeted vehicles ablaze, while scores of terrorists attempting to flee were neutralized in the aftermath.”
Ali noted that the decisive operation underscores NAF unwavering commitment to dismantling terrorist networks, denying insurgents freedom of movement, and providing critical air support to ground forces.
