Photos: Women and Children Rescued From Sambisa Forest

Here are some pictures of the women and children that were kidnapped by Boko Haram, and rescued by the Nigerian Military over the past few days. 

A spokesperson from the Nigerian Military stated that they were not the girls kidnapped in Chibok over a year ago. “Additional number of persons are still being recovered from the forest. Until such comprehensive profiling is done, nobody can confirm whether they are among the Chibok girls or not. 

Whoever they may be, the important thing is that Nigerians held captive under very severe and inhuman condition have been freed by our gallant troops.” We’re glad they are finally out of captivity and can begin to heal, and lead a normal life.
