The spokesman of the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), Air Cdre Ehimen Ejodame, has confirmed that the Nigerian Air Force, under operation Hadinkai Kai (OPHK), have eliminated several terrorists and destroyed their logistics and command centers in Borno State.

In a statement added that on July 6, 2025, launched precision airstrikes against key terrorist strongholds nestled in the Mandara Mountains, located in the North Eastern state.

He said the high-profile targets, Wa Jahode and Loghpere, had long served as fortified enclaves for the Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati wal-Jihad (JAS) faction of Boko Haram terrorists.

According to him the locations, known for their rugged, mountain-covered terrain along Nigeria’s border with Cameroon, had recently witnessed increased terrorist activity, including reports of a logistics build-up and the presence of senior JAS Commanders.

The statement added that the strikes followed confirmatory Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance missions revealing clusters of structures fitted with solar panels, black flags, and fortified compounds, clear signs of insurgent resurgence and preparations for coordinated attacks.

“Several terrorists were neutralised in the operation, effectively disrupting their supply chain and diminishing their capability to sustain further offensives,” he said.

He also reassured that the Nigerian Air Force remains resolute to sustain ongoing onslaught against terrorists and restore lasting peace to all troubled regions across the country.

“In response, NAF strike aircraft executed a series of well-coordinated air interdictions, targeting and destroying high-value terrorist infrastructure including logistics warehouses, command centres, and defensive shelters,” he added.
