Air strikes by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) aircraft have killed 15 terrorists along the Kwiga-Kampamin Doka axis in Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

The terrorists were eliminated following an intelligence report of the movement of the terrorists in the area.

NAF’s spokesperson, Air Vice Marshall Edward Gabkwet, disclosed this in a statement on Monday, January 29.

He said the intelligence report also revealed that the same syndicate was responsible for the ambush on troops at Kwanan Mutuwa on January 27, and other attacks and abduction of innocent civilians in Birnin Gwari.
