The Nigerian Air Force NAF as part of the Joint Task Force of Operation Fansan Yamma, has conducted precision air interdiction missions on the Sauri bandit camp in Tsafe Local Government Area, Zamfara State, successfully destroying a major defensive position and a logistics hub used by criminals.
The strikes neutralised several terrorists and destroyed critical structures, significantly weakening the gang’s operational capacity in the region.
NAF spokesperson Air Commodore Ehimen Ejodame confirmed the operation, explaining that it followed extensive intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance efforts which revealed increased bandit activity, including rustled livestock stored at a high-ground hideout.
He emphasized that the operation reflects the commitment of Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sunday Kelvin Aneke, who has pledged that the NAF will find them, hunt them down, and protect the people.
