 NAF Airstrikes neutralise 20 terrorists in Zamfara


The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) said its airstrikes neutralised over 20 armed terrorists and destroyed more than 21 motorcycles during an air interdiction in Zamfara State on May 31, 2025. NAF’s spokesperson, Ehimen Ejodame, in a statement, said the operation, carried out in the general area south of Mai-Galma in the Maru Local Government Area of the state, was aimed at halting a planned large-scale attack on vulnerable communities by armed bandits.


The Air Force said intelligence received indicated that a significant number of terrorists were massing and preparing to strike unsuspecting settlements. “Further intelligence confirmed that the bandits had killed some farmers and abducted a number of civilians, including women and children. “Consequently, NAF aircraft under Operation FANSAN YAMMA was immediately dispatched on armed reconnaissance and possible rescue mission,” Ejodame said.


Ejodame said upon arrival at the area, over 30 motorcycles carrying armed terrorists heading into the nearby forest were positively identified. “On sighting the aircraft, the terrorists opened fire, prompting a precision engagement that led to the destruction of several motorcycles and the neutralisation of dozens of terrorists.


“Ground forces were immediately mobilised to exploit the situation. They confirmed the destruction of enemy assets and the neutralisation of over 20 terrorists.
