Nigeria Rescues 100 Kidnapped Children from Abduction
In a breakthrough operation, authorities in Nigeria have managed to free 100 schoolchildren who were kidnapped by gunmen from St Mary's Catholic School in Niger state last month. The students were handed over to government officials and will undergo medical check-ups as part of their rehabilitation.
The rescue comes after an extensive search effort led by the Nigerian military, which has been working around the clock to locate the missing children. However, around 150 other students remain being held captive, with authorities vowing to leave no stone unturned in their efforts to secure their release.
According to reports, the kidnapped children were taken from their school in Niger state as part of a larger wave of attacks that have plagued the region. The incident has raised concerns about the security situation in Nigeria and calls for increased measures to protect vulnerable populations, particularly children.
The rescue operation is seen as a significant development in the ongoing efforts to bring an end to the conflict and restore peace to the affected areas. As the search continues for the remaining hostages, hopes are rising that they will be reunited with their families soon.
