NAF NIGHT AIRSTRIKES ANNIHILATE TERRORIST COMMAND HUB IN MANDARA MOUNTAINS

The Nigerian Air Force has executed a devastating airstrike against terrorist hideouts in Chikide and Degbewa in a bold demonstration of air power and precision night warfare capabilities.

A statement by the Deputy Director of Public Relations and Information, Group Captain Kabiru Ali indicates that
the night operation targeted insurgent enclaves deep within the treacherous Mandara Mountains, delivering a crippling blow to the terrorists’ stronghold and disrupting their activities.

Acting on credible Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance data, reports indicated that the notorious terrorist leader, Ali Ngulde, and his fighters had planned a high-level engagement at the location.

Following this intelligence, the NAF immediately launched a precision night strike under the cover of darkness, achieving complete surprise with coordinated firepower extensively destroyed the terrorists’ logistics and command centre, obliterating multiple structures and eliminated scores of terrorists in their hideouts.

This operation against Boko Haram enclaves across the theatre significantly degraded their fighting capability while creating favourable conditions for ground troops to advance and dominate the battlespace.

The successful execution of this night operation underscores the NAF’s growing dominance in both day and night air power capabilities, proving that insurgents can no longer operate under the cover of darkness.

Through relentless precision strikes and sustained air operations, the NAF remains committed to utilising its formidable air power to neutralise terrorist networks and restore lasting peace to the region.
