The Nigerian Air Force in their continued fight against the dread Boko Haram terrorists in the North East, has once again recorded yet another milestone, as they hit the venue of Boko Haram meeting in Bula Korege in Borno State, killing many of the terrorists.
According to the statement released on Monday 27th by the Director of Public Relations and Information of the Nigerian Air Force, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola reporting the latest from the North East, said, the Air Task Force (ATF) for Operation LAFIYA DOLE has decimated a location at Bula Korege on the fringes of Sambisa Forest in Borno State, being used by Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) as a meeting venue.
The attack he said, was conducted on 25 May 2019 following successive days of Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, coupled with Human Intelligence reports, that established that some structures within the settlement (Bula Korege) were being used as a rendezvous by the Boko Haram Terrorists from where they assemble to launch attacks against own troops and innocent civilians.
Accordingly, the ATF detailed a fighter aircraft to attack the hideout, scoring hits within the target area leading to significant degrading of the BHT structures. Several BHTs were also killed as a result of the strikes.
The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, will sustain its operations to completely degrade the terrorists in the Northeast.
