The Nigerian Air Force, NAF, says the Air Task Force (ATF), of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has neutralised some Islamic State of West Africa Province (ISWAP), terrorists at Tumbun ‘Alpha’ in Northern Borno.

 NAF’s Spokesman, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, who disclosed this in a statement on Saturday in Abuja, said the operation was conducted on Friday.

He said Tumbun Alpha is a small settlement, about 4km West of Tumbun Allura, on the fringes of Lake Chad in the Northern part of Borno.

 Daramola explained that the air strikes were conducted on the heels of credible intelligence reports that some ISWAP leaders and members had assembled for a meeting under a group of trees near a prominent makeshift structure within the settlement.

The spokesman said the NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, would sustain its operations against the terrorists in the North East.
