Nigerian military and local sources reported today (Tuesday) that on last Thursday and Friday, more than 100 Daesh terrorists (former Boko Haram) drowned in the river while fleeing from the army forces in the northeast of the country.

A high-ranking officer of the Nigerian army said that more than 100 terrorists drowned in the river and the army forces targeted their headquarters from the air and the ground and forced them to flee.
According to him, four soldiers of the Nigerian army were also killed in these clashes. However, Nigerian Defense Minister Bashir Salehi Magashi refused to provide more detailed information in an interview with reporters and only said that the army conducted extensive ground and air operations against terrorists last week.
