US Strikes ISIS Camps in Sokoto, Nigeria; Multiple Deaths Reported

The US military, under President Donald Trump's orders, conducted airstrikes on ISIS camps in Sokoto, Nigeria. The strikes led to the death of several ISIS militants.

The Nigerian government confirmed the operation as part of ongoing security cooperation between the two countries. The US Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, expressed gratitude for Nigeria's cooperation.

This action follows concerns raised by Trump about the security situation in Nigeria, particularly for Christians facing threats. The Nigerian government denies claims that Christians are uniquely targeted by armed groups.

The situation in Nigeria remains complex, with ongoing insecurity and terrorist activities.
