NAF airstrike neutralizes another notorious terrorist, ‘Ali Kachalla’, others in Niger

Strong evidence has emerged that infamous terrorist leader Ali Kawaje, also known as Ali Kachalla, was eliminated on Monday through airstrikes carried out by the NAF near Mangoro in Munya LGA of Niger State.

This is coming following the confirmation by the Nigerian Air Force on Sunday of the elimination of deadly terrorist kingpin Yellow Jambros through airstrikes.

The air component of Operation Whirl Punch was notified and NAF aircraft were quickly dispatched to assist troops in distress after Ali Kachalla and his foot soldiers reportedly attacked a detachment of security personnel stationed at Mangoro Community in Munya LGA of Niger State.

“Overhead the location, Kachalla and his foot soldiers were sighted withdrawing from the operatives’ location on 11 motorcycles.

“But unknown to them, they were being trailed to their hideout near Kopa Hills, where they took cover under a thick tree covering.

“It was at this point that the air strikes were authorized, which were decisive and swift, thereby ensuring effective and maximum damage to the terrorists.”

Sources around the location, as well as locals around the vicinity, revealed that several of the terrorists, including the terrorist Kingpin Ali Kachalla, were eliminated as a result of the strike.

“News of Kachalla’s demise has already led to jubilation in Mangoro and surroundings, with many locals praying for the same outcome for Dogo Gidei, whose notorious activities have continued to inflict unimaginable injuries on their well-being and livelihoods,” sources said.

When contacted about the development, NAF spokesperson, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet disclosed that he was still waiting to receive a brief about the air strike.

The strike comes barely 24 hours after the NAF confirmed the elimination of another deadly terrorist kingpin, Yellow Jambros.

Should this momentum continue, perhaps the reign of these terrorists and the foot soldiers may come to an end sooner rather than later.

Recall that Ali Kachalla is a terror kingpin whose footsoldiers shut down a NAF jet through the use of heavy artillery weapons on June 18, 2023.

The fighter jet was shot down near Kabaru village, located some 15 km west of Dansadau town.
