, Reuters reported that top army commanders allegedly ordered soldiers to “delete” children born to insurgents.
The international news agency said more than 40 soldiers and civilians interviewed for the investigation said they witnessed officers of the Nigerian military “kill children or saw children’s corpses after a military operation”.“Intentional killings of children have occurred with a blurring frequency across the region during the war, according to witnesses interviewed by Reuters,” the investigation reads in part.
“These sources included both parents and other civilian witnesses, as well as soldiers who said they participated in dozens of military operations in which children were slaughtered. Together, their estimates added up to thousands of children killed.”Reuters said it could not independently verify the estimate that thousands of children were killed during military operations against insurgency.
In the investigation, Yagana Bukar, a mother of twins, narrated how soldiers “smothered” her four-month-old twin boys after she and a group of other women and children escaped from Boko Haram fighters.
