In Zamfara State, troops of the Nigerian Army have neutralised 12 terrorists and captured 10 operational motorcycles during clearance operations.

In a statement issued yesterday by the director of public relations and information of NAF, Air Vice Marshal Edward Gabkwet, he said the airstrike conducted by the Air Component of “Operation Hadarin Kai” (OPHK) on April 13, 2024, targeted the hideouts of ISWAP terrorists nestled within Kolleram village on the shores of Lake Chad.

Gabkwet said the Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) post-strike conducted revealed that over 30 terrorists were killed.

“Among those neutralised were some senior commanders such as Ali Dawud, Bakura Fallujah and Mallam Ari,” he said.
The airstrike also destroyed terrorists’ vehicles, motorcycles and logistical assets thereby, severely hampering their operational capabilities.
