NAF Air Strikes Kill Several Terrorists Hiding In Yuwe Axis Of Sambisa Forest

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), through the Air Component of Operation HADIN KAI, has sustained intense pressure on terrorist elements in the North-East, with a precision air strike on 19 April 2026 eliminating several fighters concealed within the Yuwe axis of the Sambisa Forest. The operation followed credible intelligence corroborated by Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), which confirmed the presence of active terrorist elements within fortified structures and bunkers.

NAF air assets engaged the targets with precision munitions, destroying the structures, neutralising multiple terrorists, and eliminating key logistics facilities as confirmed by subsequent Battle Damage Assessment. The sustained tempo of air operations continues to degrade terrorist networks, leaving the terrorists increasingly exposed and disrupted, with mounting pressure forcing them into desperate and reactive actions.

Reaffirming the Service’s resolve, the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sunday Kelvin Aneke, stated that “the Nigerian Air Force will sustain relentless, intelligence-driven air operations until terrorist elements are completely neutralised.
