Airforce cuts Boko Haram supply routes
(Nigeria) The Nigerian Air Force, NAF, through its intensified and
persistent efforts in the ongoing fight against Boko Haram Terrorists, BHT, has
intercepted over 4,000 drums and jerry cans of petroleum products and other
smuggled items.
Air Commodore Dele Alonge, NAF Director Public Relations and
Information in a statement on Wednesday, said that items, suspected to be
supplies meant for BHT, were confiscated from the smugglers in Pepe,
Dashin-Hausa, Belel Bilachi, and Konkul villages located along the
Nigeria-Cameroon Borders on July 28, 2015.
“The NAF was able to achieve the recent feat through its air
patrol activities, covering both land and water, along the Nigeria-Cameroon
boarders.
“The NAF has continued to identify and destroy BHT camps and
resupplies by employing surveillance and combat aircraft. Intelligence gathered
revealed that these efforts have greatly strained the supply efforts of the BHT,”
the statement added.
