Ejodame said the air interdiction mission, conducted on Wednesday under Operation Hadin Kai, followed credible intelligence and confirmatory surveillance which revealed the enclave was harbouring fighters and commanders behind recent attacks around Bitta.
He said the strikes destroyed key structures and inflicted significant losses on the terrorists.
Ejodame added that the operation demonstrated the NAF’s professionalism and resolve in supporting ground forces and safeguarding Nigerians.
He stressed that every successful strike brought the country closer to lasting peace by dismantling terrorist networks.
