Onslaught against crude oil thieves and their illegal refineries came under the intense firepower of the Air Component of Operation Delta Safe.
It was gathered that the air strike, which was intelligence-driven, took out an illegal oil refining site situated at Dariama Village, a locality about 20 kilometers South west of Abonnema and 50 Kilometers South west of Portharcourt, Rivers State.
According to a source in the Nigerian Airforce, “it is important to note that this illegal site was observed to be active with tanks and reservoirs filled with suspected illegal refined products.
“The air strike yet again reaffirms the commitment of the Armed Forces of Nigeria towards eradicating the activities of oil thieves and illegal oil bunkerers.”
