The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) says its air component of Operation FANSAN YAMMA has carried out multiple coordinated missions targeting hostile elements in parts of Kwara State.
Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame, NAF Director of Public Relations and Information, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.
Ejodame said the operations, conducted on Sept. 28, covered Kakihun, Oke-Ode, Babanla and surrounding areas.
According to him, reconnaissance and close air support missions were executed to deter threats, while hostile elements sighted east of Babanla were decisively engaged.
He added that concurrent surveillance flights monitored key settlements and military positions, gathering intelligence in support of ground troops.
“The missions reaffirm NAF’s commitment to protecting troops and civilians, maintaining air superiority and sustaining pressure on hostile actors.
“All operations were completed successfully, and citizens are encouraged to remain confident, vigilant and supportive of the Armed Forces as decisive actions continue to restore lasting peace and security,” he said.
