Nigerian Air Force fighters bombarded scores of Islamic States of West Africa Province (ISWAP) in the northeast during the week.
The bombardments took place on an Island in Tumbun, near Lake Chad.
A military source, said following credible intelligence that the ISWAP fighters in about 11 boats were converging for a meeting at the Tumbun Island, three NAF fighters, under Operation Hadin Kai, were scrambled to carry out strikes on the targets.
“The aircraft scored devastating hits on the meeting, leaving some survivors scrambling for their lives,” he said.
The air assets of the Nigerian military have been pulling off attacks that neutralize the insurgents as well as bandit in the northeast and some part of the northwest, especially Kaduna.
