The Nigerian
military at the weekend shelled Boko Haram terrorists in Sambisa forest, Borno
State.
Footage of the
operation has been released.
The Air Task Force
(ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE carried out the bombardment.
Cannon strikes hit
multiple targets in the Boko Haram enclave.
The raid followed
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, which revealed
that the terrorists had upscaled their activities.
The ISR showed Boko
Haram importing additional fighters and increasing their logistics stocks
preparatory to attacks on troops’ locations and surrounding civilian
settlements.
Overhead the target
area, significant activity of the terrorists was observed in different parts of
the settlement.
Consequently, the
ATF dispatched assets and a surveillance platform to engage the location.
The Nigerian Air
Force (NAF) jets took turns to attack and neutralized many insurgents.
Logistics facilities
and other structures were also destroyed.
