Operatives of the Nigerian Air Force have killed many terrorists in airstrikes targeting the hideouts of militants in the Birnin Gwari area of Kaduna State.

Birnin Gwari is one of the most terrorised areas in the state.

Thousands of people have either been killed or displaced due to an increase in terrorist activities in the area.

A statement by the Kaduna State’s Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, on Thursday, said operational feedback received from security agencies revealed that a camp in Riyawa, Igabi LGA, was also targeted and destroyed.

Mr Aruwan added that a terrorist location at Tofa general area of Birnin Gwari LGA was also engaged and struck.

According to him, close air support was provided to ground troops conducting operations in Maidaro, Dogon Dawa, Damari, Saulawa, and Farin Ruwa areas of Birnin Gwari LGA.
