The strikes were executed “after detailed analysis of intelligence on the terrorists converging for a likely rendezvous at their hideout.”

He said consequent upon the analysis, airstrikes were also authorised to strike the hideout, adding that the targets were acquired and attacked in succession, with a high degree of success.

He said the NAF and other security agencies were making frantic efforts at ensuring all Nigerians, irrespective of where they reside, are safe and free to conduct their activities without fear or being threatened.

The NAF spokesman, therefore, appealed for the support of all Nigerians to the security agencies in order to defeat the criminal elements.
