| Description |
Boko Haram attacks "more than a dozen villages" in Kala-Balge district, including Anguduram, Musiye and Mudu. Many towns not named. Apparently, the attacks were in reprisal for a Chadian offensive against its hideouts. Mudu was reportedly the hardest hit. The perpetrators targeted mainly Shuwa tribesmen, who are from the same ethnic group as a large number of the Chadian troops. Witness: "They would ask if a person is Kanuri or Shuwa. Once a person was identified as Shuwa? he would be shot in the back." Death totals reported as high, though no specific numbers provided. |
