Boko Haram militants kill at least 10 Chad soldiers in an attack on a military unit near the Nigerian border
Despite efforts to push them back, Boko Haram militants killed 92 Chadian soldiers and wounded 47 more in March 2020.
Militants attacked early on Tuesday morning, killing around 10 men and wounding several others, the statement said. The Boko Haram insurgency, which erupted in northeast Nigeria in 2009, has killed more than 350,000 people and forced millions to flee their homes.The group has spread to the swampy Lake Chad zone in the west of the country, where the armies of Chad, Nigeria and Niger have been fighting the militants for years.
Chad's transitional government has vowed to more than double the size of its army by the end of 2022 to deal with security challenges, including threats from militants linked to Al Qaeda and Daesh.
