Nigerian army frees 360 people abducted by Boko Haram

"Nigeria’s army says it has freed 360 people abducted by Boko Haram in southern Borno.
The operation took place in the Mandara mountains, part of the militant group’s stronghold.
Two infants “succumbed to exhaustion" due to the challenging mountainous terrain and the hardship they endured during their prolonged captivity.
Among the most prominent Islamic militant groups are Boko Haram and its breakaway faction, which is affiliated with the Islamic State group and known as Islamic State West Africa Province. Last month, the West African country said its joint operation with the United States had killed 175 ISWAP fighters." msn
