Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Zamfara bandit, Gwoska Dankarami again escaped death on New Year\u2019s eve during military airstrikes on his camp.<\/p>\n

The hideout is along Kaura Namoda road in Zurmi Local Government Area of the state.<\/p>\n

More than a dozen of Dankarami\u2019s footsoldiers died in the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) bombardment.<\/p>\n

The shelling was conducted by the Air Component of Operation Hadarin Daji.<\/p>\n

A military operative told PRNigeria that the location was struck multiple times within some hours.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe operation killed over 16 of his cohorts, destroyed his enclave and newly built house.<\/p>\n

\u201cDankarami has not been himself since the strikes at Mutunji village in Dansadau a fortnight ago\u201d, the source added.<\/p>\n

That operation eliminated over 100 terrorists, including the kingpin\u2019s close associates.<\/p>\n

NAF Director of Information, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, confirmed Saturday\u2019s raid.<\/p>\n

Gabkwet said there would be no hiding place for \u201cterrorists and their supporters wherever they may be\u201d.<\/p>\n
