The Nigerian military continues to record massive victories over Boko Haram terrorist as they look to degrade completely the sect in the Northeast region of the country.
The Air Task Force of Operation Lafiya Dole on the 14th of November neutralised several terrorists in the Gomara and Sambisa ‘S’ area of Borno State.
After spotting the terrorists under the huge vegetation in the area, the attack aircraft of the Nigerian Airforce took turns in attacking the area which led to the death of many terrorists.
The two areas are strategic as it serves as a logistics and operational base for the terrorists.

This development was contained in a statement made public by the Coordinator, Defense Media Operations, Major-General John Enenche.
The statement reads;
The Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE has inflicted heavy casualties on Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) in the Sambisa Forest area of Borno State. This was achieved through multiple air strikes executed on 14 November 2020 at 2 locations ā Gobara and the Sambisa āSā Region ā in the vicinity of the Forest that were being used by the BHTs as logistics bases as well as staging areas to launch attacks.
2. Consequently, the ATF dispatched appropriate force packages of Nigerian Air Force (NAF) attack aircraft
to engage the target areas. Several BHTs were spotted under the dense vegetation of the locations as the NAF jets took turns in attacking the targets, neutralizing some of them.
3. The Armed Forces of Nigeria will not relent until all enemies of the Nation are neutralised and normalcy is restored to all troubled zones.
