The Director of Public Relations and Information (DOPRI), Air Cdre Edward Gabkwet, said the Nigeria Air Force (NAF) struck terrorist hideouts at Tumbun Fulani and Tumbun Shitu between September 27 and 30, 2023, when activities of terrorists in the locations were confirmed to have constituted a threat to military formations and law-abiding Nigerians residing within the locations.

At Tumbun Fulani, he said the terrorists were observed loading jerricans in two gun trucks concealed under shrubs.

Subsequently, NAF aircraft were scrambled to interdict the location, believed to be a major logistics base for the terrorists.

He said a Battle Damage Assessment after the strike revealed that several terrorists were neutralised and the gun trucks were destroyed.
