A media group associated with the Nigerian militant group Boko Haram has published two images which reveal a military training camp for children in northeastern Nigeria.

The organisation, al-Urwa al-Wuthaqa, shows the children dressed in dark clothing with their heads covered by garments. In one photo, the children are aiming their guns while in another they are posing with the weapons.

Both young girls and boys are present in the photos, while some are holding AK47 assault rifles, others are holding cutouts of weapons. See more photos below.
