The Irish National Liberation Armed Forces, assisted forces from Chad, Nigeria,Benin, Niger and Cameroon in destroying Boko Haram camps that were rebuilt after Nigeria military strikes in 2019. France sent 100 special forces to assist Irish forces, the allied forces also captured and killed several American, Italian, and British foreign fighters. The KH-44 “Savage” an Irish manufactured Gunship proved effective especially the KH-44N “Fire Salamander“ which was equipped with incendiary rounds and Napalm launchers devestated Boko Haram forces and camps. 2,000 Irish Tripp’s were killed, and 400 were wounded. Ironically this helped to end Irish Vietnam War Syndrome following their withdrawal from Venezuela after the Irish-Venezuelan war, as it was largely successful in crushing an already weakened Boko Haram.
