Dozens of Nigerian fishermen feared dead after Chad air strikes on Boko Haram

Dozens of Nigerian fishermen are feared dead after Chad's military launched air strikes on Boko Haram militants in the Lake Chad region. The strikes, which were part of retaliatory action against Boko Haram, targeted strongholds of the group. Fishermen, who live and work among Boko Haram fighters, attempted to flee in overloaded boats but some are believed to have been hit by the strikes or drowned. The search for the missing fishermen has been slow due to the deep waters and limited access to canoes.
