President Trump has announced a series of military strikes on ISIS targets in northwest Nigeria.
NPR's Tamara Keith reports the action was taken in cooperation with the Nigerian government.
President Trump first drew attention to Nigeria last month with a series of social media posts,
including this video.
Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria.
Thousands and thousands of Christians are being killed.
Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter.
In a post announcing the strikes, Trump wrote, quote, Merry Christmas to all,
including the dead terrorists,
of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues.
In his own post,
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth thanked the Nigerian government for its cooperation and said there would be more to come.
