Nigeria Air Force conducted precision airstrikes have eliminated scores of boko haram terrorists and Islamic State West Africa Province fighters killed in Borno State.

The Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, said the terrorists were killed during an early morning air strike by the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai at Suwa in Kala Balge local government area (LGA) of Borno State on 11 September 2023.

Suwa was hitherto a stronghold of Boko Haram Terrorists in Gezuwa general area near Sambisa Forest until its dislodgement by the military and other security agencies.

The statement said recent intelligence, however, revealed the massing up of terrorists within the area with likely plans to attack troops on patrol along major routes to Bama and Mafa LGA.

The statement said further intelligence also revealed that the same group of terrorists had perfected plans to attack troops stationed around Rann in Kalabalge LGA.
