A Nigerian military airstrike on a crowded market in Zamfara killed at least 100 civilians, prompting calls for investigation amid disputed casualty claims.
Gunmen killed at least 50 people and abducted women and children in an overnight assault on a village in northwestern Nigeria's Zamfara State, authorities and residents said. The attack started late on Thursday night and continued into Friday morning in Tungan Dutse village in the Bukkuyum area of Zamfara when armed men arrived on motorcycles and began setting fire to buildings and abducting residents.
