OPERATION RATTLE SNAKE 3: NAF SUSTAINS ONSLAUGHT ON TERRORIST LOCATIONS AS IT NEUTRALIZES SOME KEY BOKO HARAM LEADERS, OBLITERATES THEIR HIDEOUT AT ALAFA YAGAYAGA IN BORNO STATE The sustained onslaught against terrorist locations in the Northeast by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) under the auspices of Operation RATTLE SNAKE 3 has recorded another major success with the neutralization of some key Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) leaders at Alafa Yagayaga on the fringes of the Sambisa Forest in Borno State. This was achieved on 8 February 2020 when fighter jets dispatched by the Air Task Force (ATF) of Operation LAFIYA DOLE obliterated a compound in the settlement where the leaders had assembled for a meeting. The air strike was executed on the heels of credible intelligence reports indicating that the BHT leaders had converged at the target compound for a meeting over the weekend. Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, which confirmed the meeting venue, also observed several BHTs in and around other buildings in the vicinity of the compound. Bombs from the detailed attack aircraft scored accurate hits on the target leading to the obliteration of the compound and surrounding structures as well as the neutralization of their BHT occupants. The NAF, operating in concert with surface forces, will sustain its air campaign to shape the battlespace in the Northeast for the effective conduct of further ground and air operations.

The Theatre Commander, Operation Lafiya Dole (OPLD) Maj. Gen. Olusegun Adeniyi, says the Boko Haram insurgents will never get hold of any part of Nigeria again. Adeniyi stated this while reviewing progress of the ongoing counter insurgency operation of the Nigerian Armed Forces in the northeast on Friday in Maiduguri. He said the military had succeeded in reducing the sect from the terrorist army they used to be, to mere criminals because of the defeat they suffered since 2015. The commander dismissed the insurgents’ attempt to retake any territory “as dream that will never come to pass for them”. According to him, Boko Haram had in 2013 transmuted from a terrorist group to a terrorist army sustaining intense attacks on towns, villages, communities, markets and military bases. Maj. Gen Adeniyi conducting journalists around some of the operational vehicles at the Theatre “In 2015; immediately President Muhammadu Buhari assumed office he gave order that all military commands be relocated to Maiduguri. Insecurity: What Buhari has done, and is doing by Femi Adesina “It was only then that the military commenced attacks on the insurgents, recapturing the territories under the control of the terrorists numbering over 24 towns and villages,’’ he said. Adeniyi maintained that the insurgents had been defeated since 2017 and would remain so, adding that the current pockets of resurgent of the terrorist had international dimension. Army spokesman, Col Sagir Musa addressing journalists He explained that the proliferation of arms in the Sahel, occasioned by the expulsion of armed militias from Libya created the opportunity for the terrorists to try to find their feet. According to him, the exodus of ISIS terrorists from the Middle East and subsequent alliance with a faction of Boko Haram through the Lake Chad region is another dimension. He reiterated that the military would continue to fight to ensure that ISIS did not have a foothold in the region like they succeeded in other countries. The commander noted the adoption of ‘Super Camp’ strategy had further compounded the problem of the insurgents, adding that the strategy had enabled the troops to have longer reach. One of the newly locally built MRAP vehicles at the Theatre of Operations He added that the army was well equipped and motivated to take the fight to the terrorists in their hidings, which resulted in successful operations. The commander stressed that there was no inch of the Nigerian territory that the army is contesting with Boko Haram insurgents. Adeniyi revealed further that the theatre command had commenced local production of Mines Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles in Maiduguri to meet their operational equipment requirements. He explained that the induction of Ezugwu MRAP in the theatre of operation by the engineer corps had enhanced local fabrication in Maiduguri. According to him, the MRAPs are 100 per cent local content with only the glasses being produced in Kaduna.

If i were in charge of the military, i would have created another terrorist faction, except this one would comprise of soldiers. Stage fake terror attacks etc, and before you know it, they might get an offer to merge with BH or the other terror group in the region, and after a while, they will know everything there is to know about these terrorists and the whereabouts of their leaders. Won't necessarily yield that result the next day, but in the long run, they might get results Okay so this idea just came to me lol, haven't thought it thru yet. don't kill me. 1 Like |

Odunayaw: I posted info on somewhat similar ops done back home in the late 80s to 90s Men trained as terrorists going into enemy territories totally blind , stay there for months if needed and do what they have to do and come back if they can. Very successful . Still classified. Such ops need only leadership , no need of command chain / resources. Men for these ops are mavericks , they will need to realise that they will not come back alive , if they do come back alive that's always a bonus. Only unmarried men and without any dependents. They get special payments more than what a general earns in 3 months in one month in addition to normal salary . 3 Likes |

Sizzorkay: Let me tell u a true story Something what u described in your post was done by a single man - current NSA of India Mr doval There was a terrorist group in north east India which had become very powerful in a short span of time . So he learnt the language , did necessary facial changes to make himself look like a mongoloid and managed to join as a recruit . He rose the ranks quickly became a commander. He was on the highest priority hit list of Indian army .They failed to kill him twice . In the meantime he successfully created divisions between the group and it split into two groups who ended up killing each other . Lost more than half of cadres . Rest were so disillusioned that doval convinced them it was best to surrender and enjoy the rest of their life on government rehabilitation money. He then along with his remaining comrades surrendered to the army / government. My point being - it is doable as it already has been done 5 Likes |

nemesis8u:it actually has been done before in COLOMBIA and possibly NICARAGUA let me now pour cold water on this : The danger of these types of groups going rogue and committing untold, unaccounted atrocities is very hard because of such type of people are held to very low accountable standards. UNANSWERED QUESTIONS Are there moles in BH? ANSWERED QUESTION logic dictates if a specific airstrike can target a single individual and take out the #3 BH There are double agents this is what the FG needs to focus on amongst other things. 1 Like |
