Two Chadian soldiers died and “several” were injured in the operation
Chadian forces killed at least 117 Boko Haram terrorists over the past two weeks in an offensive against the takfiri group on islands in Lake Chad, the army said.
Two Chadian soldiers died and “several” were injured in the operation, and unspecified number of boats used by Boko Haram was destroyed and weapons seized.
Chad, Niger and Cameroon are part of a multinational force to counter the growing threat that Boko Haram poses in the region.
