BREAKING: Trump launches Christmas night airstrikes in Nigeria, targets ‘Terrorist Scum’

We are learning more tonight as President Donald Trump says the U.S. military has launched airstrikes in northwest Nigeria on Christmas night. The strikes, according to President Trump, are targeting ISIS militants he previously accused of killing Christians. Trump called the operation decisive and warned further attacks would follow if the violence continues.

"Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!" Trump said Thursday evening on social media. "I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was. The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing.”
