November 3,2022
Boko Haram terrorists have killed at least four persons, while injuring several others in an attack on Wednesday night in Niger Republic.
Zagazola Makama, a counter insurgency expert, quoting sources, disclosed that the armed terrorists group made an incursion into the camp at NGagala Peulh located about 14 kilometres west of the urban municipality of N’Guigmi at about 10 p.m and began shooting sporadically, killing 4 persons instantly while several others were injured
The injured victims were evacuated for appropriate care at the NGuigmi Health Centre.
The security situation in the Diffa region has been calm in recent months, especially with the rising waters of the Komadougou Yobé, which has made it difficult for the terrorists to attack
According to Makama, another factor that contributed is the Intensified Operation at the Eastern Front by the troops of the Multinational Force, which had forced the insurgents to minimise movement due to the fear of bombardment
