The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), has destroyed a major terrorist stronghold in Sauri camp, Tsafe LGA, Zamfara State, during precision airstrikes on November 14, 2025.
The operation neutralised several terrorists and destroyed key structures, crippling their operations in the area.
Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, NAF’s Director of Public Relations, said the strikes followed intelligence reports of heavy terrorist activity and rustled livestock used as defensive positions.
Coordinated airstrikes targeted elevated terrain, dislodging terrorists attempting to flee, who were further engaged during the mission.
Ejodame added that the operation degraded terrorist capabilities, with Chief of Air Staff Air Marshal Sunday Kelvin Aneke reaffirming the Force’s resolve to pursue criminals and protect citizens.
The NAF noted that this success supports Operation FANSAN YAMMA’s mission to deny terrorists safe havens and strengthen security across the North West.
Earlier airstrikes targeted ISWAP and bandit camps in Borno, Kwara, and Katsina.
