Hundreds slaughtered in Nigeria’s latest jihadist ambush during Friday prayers—militants armed with guns and knives stormed a central village, claiming they were purging “false Islam.” Survivors say chaos erupted as another militant faction intervened, briefly turning the tide. Police acknowledge abductions but haven’t confirmed deaths, underscoring Nigeria’s 17-year insurgency that’s now spreading westward from the northeast. Just weeks ago, 163 Nigerians—including women and children—were rescued from captivity after 160 others were killed in a similar raid. Amid mounting pressure, the government pushes pay raises and troop boosts while the U.S. delivers critical military aid to bolster intelligence and logistics against this expanding threat.
