Fighters from the so-called Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) stormed the town in Borno state three times in a week to strike a military garrison, torching homes, a police station and a UN office. The attacks have underscored the jihadists ability to launch sustained strikes at Nigeria s armed forces, more than a decade into a grinding insurgency.
