‘Several ISWAP Fighters’ Killed By Troops In Borno Air Strikes
The air component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) has reportedly killed scores of ISWAP fighters in the Malam Fatori area of Borno state.
According to Zagazola Makama, a counter-insurgency publication focused on the Lake Chad region, the missiles were launched on December 15.
The publication quoted intelligence sources as saying that the attack was conducted following reports that the insurgents were converging around Malam Fatori.
The sources said “reconnaissance missions identified a number of vehicles and motorcycles purportedly being utilized for militants movements and logistics support by the terrorists.”
Makama added that military aircraft were deployed with advanced surveillance.
“As the aircraft swooped down with surgical precision, some vehicles and motorcycles were obliterated, resulting in a substantial loss of equipment for the terrorists,” the report reads.
“Impeccable sources accounts from the area describe a series of explosions that reverberated through the town, accompanied by thick clouds of smoke rising from the impact sites.
“The sources confirmed that the operation resulted in the deaths of numerous ISWAP militants, with estimates suggesting that the casualty count may be in the dozens.
“The air strikes in Malam Fatori were not just a standalone effort; they were part of a broader strategy in Operation Hadin Kai aimed at restoring security in northeastern Nigeria.
“Ground forces, backed by the aerial campaign, have been actively engaging ISWAP elements, and air superiority has proven vital in these operations.”
