Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, a spokesman for the Nigerian Army, said in a statement on Sunday that the raid was part of the military’s increased operations in the Borno state.
In the early hours of Saturday 30 October 2021, the vigilant troops observed the movement of six gun trucks within Sambisa Forest general area, which were subsequently located at a settlement near Yuwe,
The trucks later moved to a remote location, where they were joined by other terrorist elements, in what seemed like a convergence for a meeting.
Over 50 Boko Haram/ ISWAP fighters were observed to have gathered at the meeting. Having clearly identified the terrorists’ hideout, the Air Component of OPHK immediately dispatched two aircraft to conduct air interdiction on the location.
General Nwachukwu narrated.
He went on to say that the nighttime strikes were successful and destructive, claiming that a battle damage assessment backed up by local sources revealed that over 37 Boko Haram/ISWAP terrorists were neutralized, with some of them apparently suffering varied degrees of injury.
The combat air crew discovered another set of four gun trucks about six kilometers south-west of Bama when the aircraft retired to base following the air interdiction, according to General Nwachukwu.
The air crew immediately relayed the coordinates of the location of the gun trucks to troops of the Land Component at Bama, who promptly engaged the location with artillery fire bombardment, neutralising the insurgents’ gun trucks,
He said
According to an army spokeswoman, the effective joint operations carried out by the army’s air and land components, with the assistance of other security agencies, under Operation Hadin Kai, highlight the necessity of synergy and cooperation in the battle against terrorism and insurgency.
