Boko Haram: Nigerian military denies killing over 17 civilians in Borno

airstrikes conducted by the Air Task Force of the Operation Lafiya Dole at Shokotoko village in Sakotoku village in Damboa Local Government Area of Borno State, on Thursday.

Reports emerged during the week that no fewer than 17 civilians were killed in the air raid as the Nigerian Military repelled an attack by the Islamic State of West African Province . “The operation, which was conducted on the night of 9 April and early hours of 10 April 2020, was based on credible intelligence reports, obtained from land forces and other security agencies as well as reliable, vetted informants, which confirmed that the target location was occupied solely by Boko Haram Terrorists.

Reconnaissance aircraft to ensure proper targeting for avoidance of collateral damage. Besides, it must be noted that, Nigerian Air Force pilots, by training and in line with extant Rules of Engagement for the operation, do not attack any location if it is observed that non-combatants, especially women and children, are present. In such cases, the pilots would rather return to Base with their munitions unexpended.
