#PlateauKillings: Nigerian Air force Joins In Struggle For Peace

An Mi-35P combat helicopter and an Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft has been deployed to Plateau State by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) in support of efforts aimed at quelling the crisis in the state.

The deployment of the ISR aircraft is expected to enhance intelligence gathering while the combat helicopter would conduct armed reconnaissance and other combat air support operations in close coordination with surface forces deployed to the State.

Meanwhile, other NAF air assets are available at nearby alternate airfields to hasten the process of restoring normalcy in the State, as might be necessary.
