A week after an alleged ceasefire agreement between the Nigerian government and Boko Haram, at least 25 more women have been reportedly abducted by the Islamist militant group.

The reported ceasefire between the Nigerian government and Boko Haram, the terrorist group still holding more than 200 girls captive, does not appear to be working out, as violence over the weekend put the possibility of the girls' return on even more tenuous ground.

Boko Haram, the Islamist militant group with ties to al-Qaeda waging war in Nigeria and responsible for the kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls, has reportedly reached a ceasefire agreement with the Nigerian government. Discussions between the Nigerian government and the militants have included talks of releasing the girls, who have been in captivity for six months.

Boko Haram kidnapped 97 men and boys and killed 28 earlier this week in a raid in northeast Nigeria. According to residents, the extremist terror group raided a farming and fishing village on the banks of Lake Chad on Monday.

Extremist group Boko Haram has reportedly seized yet another major Nigerian town, killing at least 100 civilians in the process. Nigeria's Daily Post reports that Gwoza, one of the most populated areas in the northeastern Borno State, was seized by the group at dawn, who came in using armored tanks and Toyota Hilux pickup trucks. Local news agency Sahara Reporters says that the attack began at dawn, and the town was under Boko Haram control by late morning. Nigerian soldiers were reportedly outmatched by what SR calls, worryingly, Boko Haram's "increasingly sophisticated weaponry."

Officials have decided to evacuate volunteers from the ebola-stricken regions of Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea, after two Americans were stricken by the deadly virus. As reported by CNN, the two victims are improving slightly, but remain in serious condition.

Two American aid workers have contracted the deadly ebola virus in Liberia as the outbreak continues to worsen in West Africa. Over 670 people have died since March in Guinea, Sierra Leone, and Liberia. NPR reports that the virus has probably now spread to Nigeria.

Militants—likely Boko Haram—bombed a city center in Kaduna, Nigeria Wednesday. At least 25 people have been reported dead so far. According to the BBC, the attack was targeting the moderate Islamic cleric Dahiru Bauchi.

More than 15,000 people have fled the town of Damboa, a trading center in northeast Nigeria, after a series of attacks by Boko Haram. More than 40 people were reportedly killed in raids on the town this past weekend, in addition to attacks the group launched on six neighboring villages.

Boko Haram militants attacked Damboa, Nigeria last night, leaving many dead and half the town burned to the ground, according to witnesses.

Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai is in Nigeria this week to celebrate her 17th birthday with a very specific wish: to bring back the over 200 missing girls who were taken from their school by Boko Haram militants in April.

According to a civilian patrol group, 56 people were killed in a car bomb attack in Maiduguri, Nigeria on Tuesday. The group, the Civilian Joint Task Force, recovered the bodies at the site. Witnesses and officials have blamed Boko Haram for the attack.

The national police of Nigeria are reporting 21 deaths and 17 injuries in an explosion that hit a shopping plaza in Abuja, the nation's capital, earlier today.

According to local reports, at least 60 women and girls and 31 boys were abducted this weekend in northeastern Nigeria. Witnesses have blamed Boko Haram, the Islamist militant group that kidnapped over 270 schoolgirls in Chibok in April.

Multiple outlets are reporting an explosion occurred at a World Cup viewing venue in Damaturu, in northeast Nigeria. A source from the General Sani Abacha Specialist Hospital told Reuters that "several pickup trucks" carrying wounded and potential casualties pulled up to the hospital following the explosion. Al Jazeera is reporting that "many" people have been killed.

Barely a week after telling the press that the 276 abducted girls had been found, the Nigerian police force has banned related protests in the Nigerian capital. It has been nearly two months since the girls were abducted.

Air Marshal Alex Badeh spoke with demonstrators this afternoon in Abuja, Nigeria to confirm that the nearly 300 missing schoolgirls, who'd been abducted by Islamic extremists last month, have been located. However, Badeh remarked that the girls cannot be apprehended with force.

In a letter to Congress, President Obama announced today that the U.S. has deployed 80 soldiers to Chad to help search for the missing missing Nigerian schoolgirls.

In a video obtained by the AFP on Monday, Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau said he would free the more than 200 kidnapped Nigerian school girls in exchange for the release of captured militants. The video also shows several dozen girls, claimed by Shekau to be the missing school girls, wearing full-length hijabs and praying.

The news did not get better from Nigeria over the weekend, not for the kidnapped girls or the general populace either.
