The Nigerian Airforce (NAF) said their airstrike has neutralized 50 terrorists, including a high-ranking ISWAP commander identified as Bashir Dauda.
NAF Commodore Olusola F Akinboyewa, Director, Public Relations and Information, Headquarters, Nigerian Air Force, said in a statement on Monday night that the precision strikes targeted known ISWAP strongholds in the villages of Tumbun Daribiyar, Jubularam, Buluwa, and Tumbu Karfe, marking a significant effort in the ongoing fight against terrorism in Nigeria’s Northeast.
According to an on-the-ground assessment, “approximately 50 terrorists, including a high-ranking ISWAP commander known as Bashir Dauda, were neutralized in the operation.”
NAF said:
“Additionally, an ISWAP supply depot in the Jubularam enclave, filled with a substantial cache of food and essential items like beans, millet, and rice, was destroyed, effectively severing a critical resource line for the terrorists.
“These successful air strikes, targeting personnel and logistics, underscore NAF’s ongoing commitment to supporting ground forces and enhancing joint efforts to decimate terrorist strongholds in the region.”
