In continuation of its sustained air strikes against
terrorists’ targets in Borno State, the Air Task Force (ATF) of
Operation LAFIYA DOLE has severely degraded another Boko Haram
Terrorists (BHTs) hideout in the Sambisa Forest. The operation was
executed yesterday, 16 June 2019, after persistent Intelligence,
Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions revealed heavy
presence of BHTs at a new camp with several structures hidden under
the thick foliage of the Forest.

Accordingly, the ATF dispatched an Alpha Jet to attack
the location. Its bombs hit the target area, with devastating
effects on several of the camouflaged structures, neutralizing
their BHT occupants.

The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces,
will sustain the effort to completely degrade the terrorists in the
Northeast.
