The Nigerian Air Force has successfully conducted an airstrike in Marte Local Government, neutralizing approximately 50 terrorists, including a high-ranking ISWAP commander, Bashir Dauda. The precision strikes targeted known ISWAP strongholds in the villages of Tumbun Daribiyar, Jubularam, Buluwa, and Tumbu Karfe.
According to Air Commodore Olusola F. Akinboyewa, Director of Public Relations and Information at the Nigerian Air Force Headquarters, the on-ground assessment confirmed the operation’s success. The strike also destroyed an ISWAP supply depot in Jubularam, which was stocked with a substantial cache of food and essential items, effectively cutting off a critical resource line for the terrorists.
“These successful air strikes, targeting personnel and logistics, underscore NAF’s ongoing commitment to supporting ground forces and enhancing joint efforts to decimate terrorist strongholds in the region,” he said.
