Washington, Dec. 25 (Xinhua) — US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that the US military had launched a "powerful and deadly" strike against Islamic State (IS) militants in northwestern Nigeria.

“This evening, at my direction as Commander-in-Chief, the United States of America launched a powerful and deadly strike against the scum of ISIS in northwestern Nigeria, who have been brutally murdering mostly innocent Christians on a scale not seen in years, even centuries,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
