Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame Director of Public Relations and Information, Headquarters, Nigerian Air Force, in a statement on Monday said the environment has been a fortified enclave for the Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati wal-Jihad (JAS) faction of Boko Haram.
The statement said the locations, known for their rugged, mountain-covered terrain along Nigeria’s border with Cameroon, had recently witnessed increased terrorist activity, including reports of a logistics build-up and the presence of senior JAS commanders.
According to the statement, the operation followed intelligence received about the insurgents who have turned the place into a safe haven for terrorist commanders.
It further noted that NAF aircraft executed a series of well-coordinated air interdictions, targeting and destroying high-value terrorist infrastructure including logistics warehouses, command centres and defensive shelters.
