The Air Task Force of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has inflicted heavy casualties on Boko Haram Terrorists in the Sambisa Forest area of Borno State.
A statement by the Coordinator Defence Media Operations, Major General John Enenche, said the operation was achieved through multiple airstrikes executed on November 14, 2020, in two locations – Gobara and the Sambisa ‘S’ Region – in the vicinity of the Forest that were being used by the terrorists as logistics bases as well as staging areas to launch attacks.
Consequently, the Air Task Force dispatched the Nigerian Air Force, NAF, attack aircraft to engage the target areas.
Several Terrorists were spotted under the dense vegetation of the locations as the NAF jets took turns in attacking the targets, killing some of them.
