Children try to salvage valuables from a burnt house following attacks by Boko Haram at Dalori on Dec 17, 2018.
The jihadists stormed in on trucks mounted with heavy weapons, killing, burning and looting before kidnapping women and children, state government spokesman Ahmad Abdurrahman Bundi said.AFP journalists saw the smouldering wreckage of trucks, buses and cars lining the road at the scene of the attack. “Many of the drivers and their assistants who were sleeping in the vehicles were burnt alive,” said Babakura Kolo, a member of a state-backed anti-jihadist militia.
The military says the tactic has helped to stem jihadist attacks but local residents and aid workers say it appears to have bolstered the jihadists by leaving vast swathes of territory unprotected.
