The Nigerian Air Force, NAF, said that it has destroyed several Boko Haram terrorists camps in Borno state with its just concluded exercise, code named “Operation RUWAN WUTA l”.
The exercise, the force said, is aimed at inflicting significant injury on the terrorists hideouts and degrade their ability to operate freely, adding that the bombardment led to the destruction of the terrorists hideouts at Parisu, Njimia, Zanari, Garin Maloma, Yale Market, Mungusum, Arra and Kote.
The Sokesman for the force, Air Commodore Olatokunbo Adesanya, who disclosed this in a statement yesterday, said a comprehensive check on the attacked locations after the 10-day operation revealed the complete absence of terrorists activities in the Sambisa forest.
While explaining that the Operation, which lasted from 7-16 September 2017, ended with a medical outreach programme, where free medical treatment, as well as free surgeries were provided to Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, in camps near Maiduguri, the Sambisa general area and Rann, in particular.
Over 700, IDPs in Rann, were said to have received free medical treatment while free surgical interventions were carried out on 146 IDPs out of the 1,032 that were screened.
