ISWAP Terrorists Kill 23 Persons In Fresh Attack On Borno Community, Seven Others Missing
Militants from the Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), formerly known as Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād, have killed at least 23 metal scavengers along Boboshe village in Dikwa Local Government Area of Borno State.
Metal scavengers mostly comprise young males who go about especially at dumpsites in search of metals which eventually get recycled.
Several bullet injuries were seen on the bodies of the deceased who have been buried according to Islamic rites.
They were said to have gone in search of scrap metals on Monday but were ambushed by the ISWAP fighters.
