In a significant blow to terrorist activities in Kaduna State, the air component of Operation Whirl Punch has successfully eliminated at least 30 terrorists and kidnappers in an air strike along the Kwiga-Kampanin Doka axis, situated in the Birnin Gwari Local Government Area.

AVM Edward Gabkwet, the Director of Public Relations and Information of the Nigerian Air Force, disclosed this in a statement released on Monday in Abuja.

According to Gabkwet, the air strike was conducted following actionable intelligence received on the movement of criminals along the said axis.

The intelligence also indicated that the same criminal syndicate was responsible for the ambush on troops at Kwanan Mutuwa on January 27, as well as numerous attacks and abductions of innocent civilians in Birnin Gwari.

In a detailed operation, the Nigerian Air Force deployed precision strikes against the terrorist convoy, which comprised approximately 15 motorcycles, each carrying armed terrorists.

“Accordingly, the terrorists were trailed to a location where they converged before they were engaged and neutralised in a precision strike.

“The aftermath of the air strike revealed that several of the terrorists were eliminated as a result of the strike,” Gabkwet stated.
