Hundreds of schoolgirls who were abducted last week in Nigeria have been released and will be soon reunited with their parents, a state governor announced Tuesday.

Officials previously said that 317 girls were kidnapped Friday, and Zamfara Gov. Bello Matawalle announced that 279 girls were released Tuesday, the Associated Press reported. It’s unclear whether the original number reported by government officials was incorrect or if there are still students that remain unaccounted for.
