    In a statement, Jonathan Hoffman, the Pentagon spokesman, said the rescue operation was conducted on Saturday morning.

    The American was reportedly abducted in Niger Republic on Tuesday and subsequently moved to Nigeria.

    “U.S. forces conducted a hostage rescue operation during the early hours of 31 October in Northern Nigeria to recover an American citizen held hostage by a group of armed men,” the statement quoted by CNN read.

    “This American citizen is safe and is now in the care of the U.S. Department of State. No U.S military personnel were injured during the operation.
