Military Aircraft Raid Borno Mountain, Kill Dozen Terrorists in ‘Sinister Meeting’

Aggressive bombardments by the Nigerian military have eliminated several Boko Haram terrorists at their ‘meeting point’ in the North East, PRNigeria reports.

The operation, carried out by the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai, OPHK, was conducted last Thursday, at Degbawa, a reclusive location within Mandara Mountains in Goza Local Government Area of Borno State.

A defence intelligence source involved in the coordinated military operation, told PRNigeria that the precision airstrikes of aircraft of the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), were informed by a credible intelligence.

He said: “The intelligence revealed the sighting of some key terrorists’ figures and their foot soldiers arriving the location in the last 2 days for a probable meeting. Their gathering in large numbers yesterday afternoon near Degbawa raised concerns, thus necessitating the need for an air interdiction on the location with a devastating outcome for the terrorists.

“An assessment of the location after the strike revealed a large number of terrorists were indeed eliminated. According to several sources, this particular location was carefully chosen by the terrorists to evade being easily detected especially by NAF aircraft.

“The outcome of the strike however proved the terrorists wrong as their nefarious plans to meet was detected, thus leading to the success of the air strike. The sources also noted that this strike was a major setback for the terrorists who have, of late, been at the receiving end of the air and land components of OPHK.

“Another source also noted that these terrorists were responsible for the recent attack on some locals in Geidam and had planned to meet to review the attack as well as plan the next line of attack on innocent civilians and other vulnerable targets”.

When contacted, NAF spokesperson, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, confirmed the attack at Degbawa, reassuring Nigerians that their NAF will continue to go after terrorists in the North East, until they lay down their arms or are eliminated.
