In continuation of the sustained offensive air operations
against Boko Haram Terrorist (BHT) elements in Borno State, the Air
Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, yesterday, 27 November
2019, neutralized several terrorists at their hideout in Ngoske on
the fringes of the Sambisa Forest. The operation was conducted
pursuant to credible intelligence reports indicating that the
settlement was one of the locations being used by the BHTs as a
staging area from where they launch attacks against own troops
positions in the southern part of the State. Accordingly, the ATF
detailed its aircraft to attack the location.
2. Overhead the target area, over 30 terrorists were spotted
near a large building surrounded by other smaller structures. The
location was subsequently engaged by the attack aircraft,
destroying some of the structures and neutralizing some BHTs. Other
terrorists, who attempted to flee the location in disarray, were
mopped-up in follow-on attacks by the jets.
3. The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, will
sustain its efforts to completely destroy all remnants of the
terrorists in the Northeast.
