This article is titled: "Nigeria Says Hostages Died Before Failed Rescue Raid" and is by the Associated Press which is the New York Times.
This article talks about two hostages one from Italy and one from Britain who were murdered before they were able to be rescued. Apparently, this is not the first instances of hostages being killed before rescue as another similar thing happened earlier this year. Though the government seems to have tried to stop it, it seems from the article that there is some funky buisnuss going on and that the government is trying really hard to make sure none of the blame is place on them. Apparently, the kidnapping was done by the sect Boko Haram who seems to be some sort of violent group within Nigeria. The people searching for the hostages came close, having found Abu Muhammad, the organizer of the kidnapping, and shooting him, but there was someone who escaped and was able to run back to where the hostages were being held and to have them executed before they were able to be saved.
