From Molly Kilete, Abuja

The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has said the Air Component of Operation HADARIN DAJI has destroyed another bandits’ logistics base, killing scores of their fighters at a forested high ground area near Bayan Ruwa in Zamfara State.

The Coordinator, Defence Media Organisation, Maj-Gen John Enenche, who made this known in a statement on Thursday, stated:

‘The Air Component of Operation HADARIN DAJI has neutralized several armed bandits and destroyed some of their facilities, including logistics items, at their hideout in a forested high ground area near Bayan Ruwa in Zamfara State. This was achieved through airstrikes executed on 1 and 2 December 2020 pursuant to credible Human Intelligence (HUMINT) reports and confirmatory surveillance missions indicating that a group of armed bandits, led by one so-called Jummo, who has ties to terrorist elements in the North East, had established a camp at the location, where they kept their motorcycles, high-calibre weapons as well as scores of rustled cattle.
