ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — Several soldiers were killed during an attempt to raid a military base in northeastern Nigeria early Thursday, the country’s military said. The attack occurred in Benisheikh in Borno state, army spokesman Michael Onoja said in a statement, but it was repelled. Onoja described the assailants as “terrorists,” which is the term the military uses to describe members of Islamic militant groups in the northeast of the country. Onoja didn’t specify how many soldiers were killed
