The air component of the Operation Lafiya Dole says it has conducted 286 air strikes on Boko Haram hideouts in the last one month.
This is according to the Deputy Theatre Commander, Air Vice Marshal Isiaka Amao.
Amao told journalists in Maiduguri that the air component has intensified airstrikes against Boko Haram terrorists with focus on degrading their operational capability and logistics support base.
According to the Air Force officer, the air component is conducting interdiction missions in parts of the notorious Sambisa forest and other identified hideouts.
The air component has also been supporting the land component in their advance to dislodge terrorists from their enclaves.
