According to the source of the channel, “during the operation, seven militants were liquidated, but the special forces did not find the hostages.” The operation was carried out shortly after the abduction of teachers.
This was the second attempt to free the hostages. The first had to be curtailed, because no permission was received for its holding from the White House.
According to the channel, “Barack Obama gave the go-ahead for the second attempt to free the hostages, after which the special forces stormed the militants' shelter,” the whereabouts of which is not indicated.
"It went wrong," - said the source. According to him, the first attempt at liberation failed because of the "bureaucracy in the White House."
