MILITARY AIRSTRIKE NEUTRALIZED 27 BANDITS IN KATSINA DAWN OPERATION
The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) component has recorded a major operational success in Katsina State following a precision air operation that neutralised a large number of armed bandits in Faskari Local Government Area.
Zagazola Makama learnt that the operation, conducted in the early hours of Feb. 1, targeted known bandit enclaves in the Shawu–Mununu forest axis, Ruwan Godiya area of Faskari LGA.
According to sources involved in the mission, the strikes followed sustained aerial reconnaissance that confirmed the presence of heavily armed elements believed to be responsible for recent attacks along the Bakori–Guga corridor.
“At about 6:30 a.m., NAF air assets executed a coordinated reconnaissance and strike mission on identified bandit camps in the Shawu Mununu forest,” the sources said.
“The targets were strongly linked to recent violent incidents in the area. The operation achieved its objective, with approximately 27 armed bandits neutralised.”
The sources said follow-up assessments indicated that the surviving members of the group fled the area in disarray, abandoning their hideouts and logistics.
The sources added that the precision of the air strikes significantly degraded the group’s operational capability and disrupted their freedom of movement within the forested belt stretching across parts of southern Katsina.
