Armed terrorists have launched a deadly attack on the Kungurki community in Kaura Namoda Local Government Area of Zamfara State, killing an elderly man and abducting 13 residents, including a two-month-old baby and his mother.
This was made known on Sunday by Zagazola Makama, a Lake Chad Basin counterterrorism and insurgency expert, in a post on his X handle.
Makama said intelligence sources informed him that the assailants stormed the village under the cover of darkness, firing sporadically to instil fear among residents.
The terrorists also looted several shops, carting away food items, household supplies and other valuables.
