Jihadists attacked Wultihia, a Christian community in Nigeria Thursday. The attack occurred without the intervention of the government forcing the residents to flee.
“ISWAP, which split from the mainstream Boko Haram in 2016, has become a dominant group, focusing on military targets and high-profile attacks, including against aid workers,” Sahara Reporters write. “The Nigerian army has repeatedly claimed that the insurgency has been largely defeated and frequently underplays any losses.”
A church, two cars, and several homes were burned down in the attack. Terrorist groups such as ISWAP have killed many Christians in Nigeria and displaced millions in their attempt to impose their strict Islamic Sharia law.
