Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[REGNUM] At least 16 people have died in a militant attack on a village in northwest Nigeria, the press service of the Nigerian police said.

Gunmen reportedly attacked the village of Dankade in the state of Kebbi in the northwest of the country. The attack killed 16 people - one policeman, two military personnel and 13 civilians. It is assumed that the attackers came from the neighboring state of Zamfara, where they also terrorized local residents.

Nigerian security forces were sent to the scene of the incident, who entered into battle with the militants. It is noted that a number of attackers died during the shooting.

As REGNUM reported on January 10, Nigerian soldiers killed five armed militants during a battle in the state of Kaduna. It was noted that the military received intelligence on the whereabouts of armed criminals and were able to eliminate the militants.
