The Nigerian Air Force, under Operation Hadin Kai (OPHK) has sent 35 terrorists to be with their ancestors in hell permanently.
Dominating the battlespace, they denied the terrorists freedom of action in the North East.
Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, the Director of Public Relations and Information (DOPRI), Nigerian Air Force who disclosed this in Abuja on Saturday, said a precision air interdiction carried out in the early hours of 23rd August 2025, neutralized more than 35 terrorists.
He explained that prior to the bombing, the criminals had converged near the Nigeria–Cameroon border following an attempted attack on ground troops at Kumshe.
He noted that acting on multiple intelligence from several sources, the Air Component executed precision strikes in successive passes, engaging the terrorists and neutralising more than 35 fighters at four identified assembly areas.
Following the operation, communication was re-established with ground troops, who confirmed that the situation around their location had been stabilised.
The latest operation demonstrates the NAF’s unwavering commitment to providing close air support to ground forces, while also disrupting terrorist logistics and movement corridors along the North East border regions.
The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Hasan Bala Abubakar, commended the professionalism of the aircrew and reaffirmed that the NAF will sustain aggressive and intelligence-driven air operations to ensure the complete degradation of terrorist elements threatening Nigeria’s sovereignty.
