United States has sent about eighty soldiers to Chad, an ally of Washington in Africa, to help locate and rescue the 200 girls kidnapped last month in Nigeria by Islamist group Boko Haram.

In a letter to the head of the House of Representatives, John Boehner speaker, the U.S. president, Barack Obama, notified on Wednesday that these troops “will support the operation of intelligence, surveillance and aerial reconnaissance” in northern Nigeria, where supposedly are found the girls.

Military force, Obama explained in his letter to Boehner, will remain in Chad until no longer required U.S. aid.

The eighty soldiers who participate in the search for the kidnapped join the thirty experts that the Obama Administration sent a few days ago to support the Nigerian government in the rescue effort.
