The attack was carried out by members of the Islamic State in West Africa group (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation). Armed militants burst into the village of Kayaya and shot people. As representatives of the local militia said, the militants attacked civilians because they refused to pay money for grazing livestock in the territory they captured. As Regnum reported , on September 1, militants attacked believers in a mosque building in the village of Saya-Saya in northern Nigeria. Seven people died, two were hospitalized with gunshot wounds. Local security forces said they were searching for the militants who attacked civilians. |
