What Trump said
Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social, "Tonight, at my direction as Commander-in-Chief, the United States launched a powerful and large-scale attack against ISIS terrorists in Northwest Nigeria. These terrorists were continuously targeting and brutally killing innocent Christians. This has not been seen in many years and centuries."
Trump further wrote in his post, "I had previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the massacre of Christians, they would face the consequences.
