Preview

Nigeria’s military has freed almost 300 girls and women from the Boko Haram militant group. Officials have not identified the 200 girls and 93 women. The Nigerian military says it rescued them in the Sambisa Forest.

Boko Haram has kidnapped hundreds of people in northeastern Nigeria and neighboring Cameroon. Last April, the militants kidnapped 219 schoolgirls from the town of Chibok.

Some of the former captives may have nowhere to return. Experts says many may not be able to go home because Boko Haram has destroyed their houses, families or businesses, or continues to threaten their towns.
