Almost a quarter of a million children in parts of Nigeria’s Borno state, formerly controlled by Boko Haram, are suffering from severe malnutrition, the UN children’s agency says.

Unicef warns that areas where held by Boko Haram militants, people were found without water, food or sanitation, tens of thousands will die if treatment does not reach them soon.

It is worth mentioning that the terrorist group’s seven-year rebellion has left 20,000 people dead and more than two million displaced.
