NAF airstrike successfully neutralizes ‘Ali Kachalla’ and his accomplices in Niger

There is compelling evidence that the notorious terrorist leader Ali Kawaje, also referred to as Ali Kachalla, was destroyed on Monday by NAF airstrikes near Mangoro in Munya LGA, Niger State.

This comes after the Nigerian Air Force confirmed on Sunday that Yellow Jambros, the lethal terrorist mastermind, had been destroyed by airstrikes.

A detachment of security forces stationed at Mangoro Community in Munya LGA, Niger State, was reportedly attacked by Ali Kachalla and his foot soldiers. This led to the notification of the air component of Operation Whirl Punch, and NAF aircraft were promptly despatched to aid troops in distress.

“Eleven motorcycles carrying Kachalla and his foot men were seen pulling away from the operatives’ position above the scene.

They didn’t realise, though, that they were being followed to their hiding place close to Kopa Hills, where they sought refuge beneath a dense canopy of trees.

“The airstrikes were authorised at this point, and they were rapid and decisive, delivering maximum and effective damage to the terrorists.”

Numerous terrorists, including terrorist Kingpin Ali Kachalla, were killed as a result of the strike, according to sources close to the scene and civilians living nearby.

Sources stated that “Mangoro and the surrounding areas are celebrating the news of Kachalla’s death, and many people are praying for the same outcome for Dogo Gidei, whose infamous activities have continued to inflict unimaginable injuries on their well-being and livelihoods.”

NAF spokesman Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet said he was still awaiting a brief regarding the airstrike when he was approached about the news.

The attack takes place just twenty-four hours after the NAF declared that Yellow Jambros, another lethal terrorist leader, has been eliminated.

If this trend keeps up, it’s possible that the foot soldiers’ and terrorists’ rule may end sooner rather than later.

Remember that on June 18, 2023, footsoldiers led by terror mastermind Ali Kachalla used heavy weaponry to bring down a NAF plane.

About 15 kilometres west of Dansadau town, in the vicinity of Kabaru village, was where the fighter plane was shot down.
