Heavy casualties have been inflicted on the Boko Haram Terrorists including their hideouts in Alagarno and a compound housing some of their leaders taken out by the Air Taskforce of Operation Lafiya Dole in the Sambisa Forest area of Borno State. A signed statement by the Coordinator Defence Media Operations, Maj. General John Enenche, made available to Channel Network Afrique indicates that the compound concealed under thick vegetation and located 2.3Km North East of KAFA, was being used by the terrorists to coordinate their nefarious activities. He stated that the destruction of the locations was achieved through multiple air strikes executed by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) fighter jets and attack helicopters dispatched by the ATF to engage the target areas in day and night raids on 6 January 2021. Enenche added that the BHTs were spotted under the dense vegetation of the locations and the NAF attack aircraft took turns in engaging the targets, neutralizing several of them. The Defence however assured that the Armed Forces of Nigeria will not relent until all enemies of the Nation are neutralised and normalcy is restored to all troubled zones.
