US Strikes ISIS Militants in Northwest Nigeria on Christmas Day⁣
⁣
The United States carried out #airstrikes against #Islamic State militants in northwest #Nigeria on #Christmas Day, claiming Christianity there faces “existential threat”. #ISIS #Africa ⁣
Nigeria’s foreign ministry said the operation was part of ongoing #security cooperation, involving intelligence sharing and precision air strikes.⁣
Earlier, Nigeria says militants target both Muslims and Christians, and that U.S. claims of Christians facing persecution are misrepresentative.
