- Reports say the Nigerian Army suffered an attack from the Boko Haram insurgents leading to the death of 31 soldiers

- The reports confirm that the soldiers did all within their powers to repel the insurgents before they were overpowered

- The reports claim details about the situation are still being gathered by the authorities

At least 31 soldiers were reported dead, 19 injured and some others yet to be unaccounted for as Boko Haram insurgents allegedly invaded a base of the Nigerian Army in Borno state on Thursday, August 30.

Premium Times reports that scores of Boko Haram fighters carried out the attack on the base located at Zari, a small community north of Maiduguri and near the border with Niger.

The report said the insurgents stormed the base in 12 gun trucks while some others came on foot in the early evening of that day.

The report quoted sources in the know as revealing that the soldiers earlier showed gallantry by repelling the terrorists. However, they failed at a point and “the insurgents broke into the camp after about an hour of exchange of gunfire.

“An unknown number of troops could still not be accounted for as at Saturday (September 1) morning, our sources said.

“A search and rescue operation is currently underway in conjunction with troops from the 145 battalion, this website learnt.

“The wounded officers and men were evacuated to the Nigerian Army 7 Division Medical Services and Hospital in Maiduguri.

“Two of our sources said the terrorists made away with armoured personnel carriers, anti-aircraft guns, water tanker, utility trucks, ambulances and other equipment.

“They also burnt satellite communication equipment and destroyed makeshift tents inside the camp,” the report quoted the source as saying adding that the authorities were still trying to ascertain Boko Haram casualties.

It is not immediately clear whichof the two Boko Haram factions carried out the attack.

“I am only aware of aerial bombardment and the response of the ground troops that left many Boko Haram fighters killed.
“But I am not aware of soldiers’ casualties and I would not have such information until it gets to my desk," Colonel Nwachukwu reportedly said through the telephone.

How many times has Real Madrid won the Champions League?

The  Champions League was established as a seasonal football competition since 1955 by Europe’s football governing body UEFA.

Principally, the Champions League is open to domestic league winner of all UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) member associations with the exception of Liechtenstein, which currently runs no domestic league competition.

Furthermore, the Champions League also welcomes some top clubs in Europe’s big leagues that end their domestic campaign between second to fourth spot.

Previously, the Champions League was known as the European Cup before it was rechristened during the 1992–93 season.

Initially, only the respective national league winners and the defending champion of the Champions League were permitted to take part in Europe’s premier club competition.

However, this was rule was changed in 1997 to permit runners-up of the stronger leagues across Europe to compete.

At the commencement of the Champions League era, the defending champion did not automatically qualify for the tournament until the rules were changed in 2005 to grant title holders Liverpool free passage into the tournament.

Interestingly, clubs that have won the Champions League three times in a row, or five times overall, receive a multiple-winner badge.

At the last count six clubs that include Real Madrid, Ajax, Bayern Munich, Milan, Liverpool and Barcelona have earned this privilege.

However, a total of 22 clubs have claimed the Champions League/European trophy.

Spanish giants Real Madrid currently hold the record for the most victories, having claimed the competition 13 times, including the inaugural edition of Europe’s most popular club football competition.

The Los Blancos have also won the seasonal competition the most times in a row, claiming it five times between 1956 and 1960.

On the other hand, Italian topflight champions Juventus have been runners-up most times, losing seven times in the finals.

La Liga side Atlético Madrid remain the only club to play in three finals without tasting victory while the pair of Reims and Valencia have ended up twice as runners-up twice without winning.

On the whole, Spanish clubs have provided the most champions, with 18 wins from two clubs.

Italy account for 12 winners from three clubs as England produced 12 winners from five clubs.

Interestingly, English clubs were axed from the competition for five years no thanks to the Heysel disaster in 1985.

Real Madrid are the current holders of the Champions League after beating Liverpool at the 2018 final in Kiev, Ukraine.
