Trump targets ISIS in Nigeria amid warnings Sahel region is becoming ‘epicenter of terrorism’
President Donald Trump ordered Christmas airstrikes against Islamic State militants in northwest Nigeria, targeting ISIS terrorists near the Niger border after attacks on Christians.
Facing a growing terror threat in the Sahel, the Trump administration could discover that its avoidance of “long-term American presence or commitments” in Africa is impracticable.
The bombing is the latest in a series of attacks in Nigeria's troubled northern region, where the country is battling multiple armed groups.
The alert follows online footage showing locals scavenging debris and unexploded ordnance at strike sites in Sokoto state, sparking fears of deadly blasts.
