VIDEO: NAF Shells Terrorists at Workshop in Sambisa
Forest
The Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has destroyed
some vehicles and neutralized some Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) at
a suspected vehicle workshop in Sambisa Forest, Borno State. The
operation was conducted yesterday, 24 April 2019, after a Nigerian
Air Force (NAF) Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR)
platform on a routine mission observed significant activities as
well as some serviceable vehicles hidden under some trees at a
previously abandoned BHT vehicle workshop. Accordingly, the ATF
scrambled an Alpha Jet to attack the location. Overhead the target
area, some of the BHT fighters were seen attempting to flee the
location but were taken out by the Alpha Jet’s successful strikes,
which also caused the destruction of 2 vehicles and other equipment
at the workshop.
The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, will sustain
its operations to completely degrade the terrorists in the
Northeast.
