Security sources are saying Shekau was seriously wounded and he may have been captured.
Many of the very top leaders of the heartless killer group, Boko Haram, were said to have been killed in the bombings with heavy fire-power. Soldiers are now attacking the base in ground operation.
Acting Director Army Public Relations, Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman confirmed this saying
"In what one could describe as the most unprecedented and spectacular air raid, we have just confirmed that as a result of the interdiction efforts of the Nigerian Air Force, some key leaders of the Boko Haram terrorists have been killed while others were fatally wounded.
The air interdiction took place last week Friday 19th August 2016, while the terrorists were performing Friday rituals at Taye village, Gombale general area within Sambisa forest, Borno State.
Those Boko Haram terrorists commanders confirmed dead include Abubakar Mubi, Malam Nuhu and Malam Hamman, amongst others. While their leader, so called “Abubakar Shekau”, is believed to be fatally wounded on his shoulders. Several other terrorists were also wounded. Thank you for your kind and usual cooperation."
