Nigerian soldiers say they have rescued a young woman who was abducted in the Chibok kidnapping 10 years ago.
Two-hundred and seventy-six girls were taken from a secondary school in the town in Borno on 14 April 2014 by the militant Islamist group Boko Haram.
The abductions shocked the world and led to the global #BringBackOurGirls campaign, which included former US First Lady Michelle Obama.
It is thought that almost 100 of them are still captive or are missing.
On Thursday, the Nigerian army said it had rescued the young woman together with her three children.
She was five months' pregnant at the time of her rescue and claimed to be from Pemi Town in Chibok, it added.
