 NAF INTENSIFIES AIRPOWER CAMPAIGN, STRENGTHENS AIR PRESENCE IN SOKOTO TO DENY TERRORISTS FREEDOM OF ACTION The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has intensified its airpower campaign against terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and other criminal activities across the North-West, with a strengthened air presence in Sokoto State to support ongoing joint security operations. The initiative reflects the Service’s determination to sustain pressure on hostile elements, enhance aerial surveillance and maintain the capacity for rapid response to emerging threats, while providing effective air support to ground forces operating within the Joint Operations Area. The strengthened air presence is particularly significant in the fight against asymmetric threats, where terrorists and bandits exploit difficult terrain, mobility and concealment to evade ground forces.

 Libyan delegation visits site of army chief's plane crash in Türkiye


A group of military officials from Libya has visited the site near Turkish capital, Ankara, where a plane crashed on Tuesday, killing Libyan Chief of General Staff General Mohamed Ali Al-Haddad alongside his delegation and three crew members.


The Libyan officials arrived in Ankara on Wednesday and travelled to Kesikkavak in Ankara’s Haymana district, where the jet went down, killing everyone on board.


The delegation then proceeded to the area where the wreckage is located, where search and investigation efforts are ongoing.


The black box and cockpit voice recorder of the plane were recovered early Wednesday, Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said, adding that the wreckage is spread out over an area of roughly 3 square kilometers (about 1.16 square miles).


Examination and evaluation of the devices – which should help determine the cause of the crash – has begun, Yerlikaya said.


Over 400 personnel have been working at the scene with 103 ground vehicles and seven air vehicles, he added.


A 22-member Libyan delegation – including five relatives of the victims, defence ministry representatives, and officials from the Interior Ministry – also arrived in Ankara, Yerlikaya said.


“We are also very curious about (the cause of the crash), but this data will reveal the cause, and the authorities will share the findings with you,” he said.


The Falcon 50-type business jet crashed after taking off from Ankara’s Esenboga Airport en route to Tripoli, the Libyan capital.
