The Nigerian Air Force NAF has unleashed devastating airstrikes on notorious bandit camps in eastern Shinkafi, Zamfara State, eliminating scores of armed criminals and wiping out their hideouts.
Sources confirmed that the air raids specifically targeted the stronghold of Kachallah Haru in Katsira Forest, extending to Fakai Forest—both known sanctuaries for heavily armed gangs terrorizing local communities.
Ground security forces reported significant casualties among the bandits, with their livestock and logistical supply chains destroyed in the bombardment. A senior military official revealed that surveillance operations are ongoing to track down and eliminate any fleeing insurgents.
The Nigerian military remains resolute in its crackdown on terrorism and banditry, vowing to sustain relentless operations to restore lasting peace in the region.
