He added that the NAF struck a terrorist stronghold northwest of Yartsamiya Village in the Danmusa Local Government Area of Katsina State.

According to Gabkwet, troops at the scene saw a group of eleven armed terrorists making their way towards a mountainous region.
“Consequently, air interdiction was conducted at the location with Battle Damage Assessment footages and feedback received revealing several terrorists neutralised.
“attacking their logistics hubs also helps in reducing their ability to carry out massive attacks, especially on innocent civilians and troop’s location,” he said.
