The Joint Task Force North West Operation Fansan Yamma has clarified that its airstrikes in Sokoto State targeted and killed only terrorist associates, contrary to circulating reports.
Reports had emerged on Wednesday purporting that the military mistakenly bombed two communities in Silame Local Government Area of Sokoto State.
The Press Secretary to the Sokoto State Governor, Abubakar Bawa, confirmed that the military fighter jets killed at least ten civilians.
However, a statement by Lt. Col Abdullahi Abubakar, spokesman for the Joint Task Force, said the air strikes in Gidan Sama and Rumtuwa communities hit associates of the Lakurawa terrorist group.
He said, “Importantly, the targets struck in the vicinity of Gidan Sama and Rumtuwa have been positively identified as associated with the Lakurawa group, reinforcing the justification for the military action taken.
“These reports have raised concerns; however, it is crucial to clarify that all military operations are conducted based on thorough intelligence and reconnaissance missions.
“This rigorous process is particularly important when targeting groups like the Lakurawa terrorist organization, as it aims to ensure precision and protect civilian lives.
“Given the serious nature of these operations, the public is urged to rely on confirmed information to prevent misinformation and unnecessary panic”.
