At least 29 people were killed when militants attacked sleeping villagers in Guyaku village, Adamawa State, Nigeria, on Sunday night. The Islamic State (ISIS) claimed responsibility for the assault through a message on Telegram. According to government sources, armed militants entered the village in several groups and opened fire indiscriminately, killing many on the spot and injuring others. Several houses were also set on fire as terrified residents fled for safety.
Police arrived at the scene after receiving reports and took the injured to a local hospital. On Monday, Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri visited the site and condemned the incident as a cowardly attack. In a separate incident the same day, armed assailants stormed an orphanage in Lokoja, Kogi State, abducting 23 teenagers. Police later rescued 15 of them, while the search for the remaining missing youths continues. No group has claimed responsibility for the abductions.
Authorities are continuing rescue operations and investigations into both attacks, which have heightened security concerns in the affected regions.
