The Air Task Force of Operation Lfiya Dole, said it has killed some Islamic State of West African Province terrorists and destroyed compounds housing them at Kaza in the Northern part of Borno State.
The command added that the air strike was executed on February 5 following credible intelligence reports indicating that some ISWAP elements, who relocated from nearby Tongule, had set up camp in a cluster of compounds at Kaza, along with their logistics supplies.
The identified location within the settlement was attacked by the ATF’s fighter jets after confirmatory Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions showed significant presence of terrorists.
This resulted in the destruction of the structures and the neutralization of some of the ISWAP fighters.
