Soldiers in Niger ambush were chasing escaped ISIS recruiter
The U.S. special forces unit that came under attack in Niger this month had been pursuing a senior militant who escaped, U.S. officials told NBC News.

An official said one theory is that the soldiers were gathering information about the target, and, after learning his whereabouts, decided to pursue him. A big question that remains: Did the unit get authorization, and were the risks assessed?
