NAF PRECISION STRIKES SHATTER HIGH-GROUND TERRORIST STRONGHOLD IN TSAFE, ZAMFARA
The Nigerian Air Force Air Component of the Joint Task Force of Operation FANSAN YAMMA has achieved a major operational breakthrough following precision air interdiction missions conducted on 14 November 2025 at the Sauri bandit camp in Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara State.
A statement by the Director of Public Relations and Information Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame indicates that the mission was undertaken after comprehensive intelligence and surveillance operations confirmed significant terrorist activity and rustled livestock concealed on a high-ground hideout used by the criminals as both a defensive position and a logistics hub.
Acting on this intelligence, the Air Component executed multiple coordinated strike passes on the identified targets, achieving direct hits that dislodged surviving terrorists attempting to flee into surrounding vegetation, where they were subsequently tracked and effectively engaged.
The operation underscores the unwavering resolve of the Joint Task Force and the NAF under Operation FANSAN YAMMA to deny terrorists safe havens, strengthen security in Zamfara State, and support wider national efforts to restore lasting peace and stability across the North West.
