The US official has announced the rescue of an American citizen identified as Philip Walton, following a US special operation in Nigeria.
The 27-year old Walton, who was abducted on Tuesday from his home in neighboring southern Niger, was rescued by Forces including navy Seals, US officials on condition of anonymity said, adding that no US troops were hurt.
A diplomatic source in Niger said Walton was now at the US ambassador’s residence in Niamey.
“Big win for our very elite US special forces today,” Donald Trump updated on Twitter.
The Pentagon confirmed the operation but did not provide the identity of the hostage.
Last night, our Country’s brave warriors rescued an American hostage in Nigeria. Our Nation salutes the courageous soldiers behind the daring nighttime rescue operation and celebrates the safe return of yet another American citizen!
