Airforce Storms Boko Haram Biggest Camp, Bombs Them Out

The Niger’s Air Force has bombed one of the biggest camp of the heartless Boko Haram sect in the forest close to Nigeria and Niger's border and arrested more than 20 fleeing terrorist leaders.

Security sources has revealed that this is its biggest counter-attack in the last eight months.

A top military officer who confirmed the latest development, said “Our air forces destroyed this nest, but we do not yet have an official death toll.”

Members of the Islamist militant group based mostly in North-Eastern Nigeria have repeatedly attacked the Lake Chad area, including Niger’s southern border region of Diffa.

Government forces tracked the militants after a soldier was killed when a military vehicle was blown up by remote control by the group near Lake Chad on Monday, the sources said.

The officer said soldiers had arrested the remaining terrorists.
