In furtherance of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, the Nigerian Air Force on November 24, 2017 successfully neutralized a large gathering of Boko Haram Terrorists in Bogumeri, Borno State.
A NAF platform, while on routine Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance, had previously discovered the large gathering of the terrorists in the area, which was known to have their presence in significant number.
Consequently, NAF fighter aircraft were detailed to carry out air interdiction on the target, in quick succession.
The Alpha Jet fighter aircraft attacked the target with bombs, killing the insurgents and setting some structures ablaze.
Meanwhile, in a separate attack on November 28, 2017, the NAF successfully neutralized another large gathering of Boko Haram Terrorists in Gobara, 15km north west of Gwoza.
A NAF ISR platform had previously discovered the armed BHTs, who were gathered by a building that was apparently being used as a hideout.
The subsequent air strike resulted in the immediate destruction of the target building, killing all the Boko Haram Terrorists inside it.
