Nigeria army reacts to Boko Haram 'rocket-making' photos

The Nigerian military has dismissed the photos released by militant Islamist group Boko Haram purporting to show its rocket-making factory in the country.
A statement from the military said the move was to aimed at creating apprehension and panic among innocent citizens.
"For avoidance of doubt, this and other tactics are nothing but empty threats which will not help them from being defeated," it added.
The photos obtained by the BBC Hausa service on Monday seemed to indicate that members of the group have the technical know-how to manufacture weapons.
