Enenche said the air raid was in continuation of the intensive air interdiction missions being conducted as part of subsidiary Operation Wutar Tabki by the air component of OPLD.
He said the air strikes were executed on Sunday after aerial surveillance missions showed significant number of terrorists and logistic items at the location.
According to him, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) fighter jets and helicopter gunships dispatched by the Air Task Force took turns in engaging the location.
