Boko Haram has splintered into 2 major factions: 1 loyal to Shekau and the other aligned to IS.
Fighters loyal to the Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the killings, but said they had slain 22 soldiers after an assault by the army. Soldiers were forced to withdraw after an hour-long battle in which nine jihadists were also killed, said the second source. There has been a lull in attacks on troops from the jihadist factions in recent weeks as the military has intensified operations against the fighters.
ISWAP split from Boko Haram in 2016 and focuses on attacking military targets while Boko Haram is notorious for attacks on civilians.
