The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has disclosed that its airstrikes conducted on terrorists’ strongholds at Warawara, near Wajiroko, and Chinene in the Mandara Mountains of Borno State destroyed four gun trucks, two Toyota Hilux vehicles and killed score of fighters.

NAF, in a statement by its Deputy spokesman, Group Captain Kabiru Ali said the airstrikes were executed on 26 March, 2025 in continuation of the counter-terrorism operations in the North-East.

Group Captain Ali said NAF was guided by painstaking Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions which identified a number of terrorists stockpiling logistics and planting Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) around Wajiroko.

According to Ali, surveillance later tracked their movement to a concealed location housing a gun truck, ammunition stockpiles, and fuel reserves.

As a result, the Air Component of Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) in response, executed multiple waves of air interdiction missions.

“The first wave struck the terrorists’ logistics hub, destroying gun trucks and critical supplies. The other followed with sustained rocket and cannon attacks, ensuring the complete annihilation of terrorist’s assets,” the statement said.

Later that same day, NAF aircraft targeted another terrorist enclave at Chinene in the Mandara Mountains where intelligence indicated that insurgents had relocated following previous air raid on Degbewa on 16 March, 2025.

“Overhead reconnaissance confirmed the presence of active structures, prompting the execution of strikes that set terrorist hideouts ablaze. Fleeing insurgents were subsequently engaged and neutralised, further crippling their operational capacity.

“Battle Damage Assessment and corroboratory intelligence confirmed the neutralisation of scores of terrorist fighters. The strikes also destroyed 4 terrorist gun trucks, 2 Toyota Hilux vehicles, and several makeshift shelters, forcing the insurgents to abandon their positions degrading their operational capabilities,” he said.

He said the successful airstrikes underscored NAF’s commitment to neutralising insurgents, disrupting their logistics, and denying them safe havens.

“With sustained pressure on terrorist elements, the NAF remains resolute in its mission to restore peace and security in the country,” he added.
