Nigeria arrests two foreign jihadists from the Middle East for aiding local terror groups

The Nigerian military has arrested two foreign jihadists, including individuals from the Middle East, who were helping local terror groups. After 17 years of fighting an Islamist insurgency, the military now faces the added challenge of foreign fighters bringing advanced skills and technology to the militants. The arrests highlight the growing internationalisation of the jihadist threat in Nigeria.
