Bandits Kill 8 Civilian JTF Members in Zamfara Attack

In Zamfara, bandits targeted and killed 8 members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) in an attack in the Yandoton Daji community. This incident occurred shortly after bandits had killed 5 worshippers, including an imam, in a separate attack.

The CJTF members were ambushed while attempting to respond to a distress call from the community. The bandits, who were likely informed of the CJTF's presence, ambushed and killed the personnel before disappearing.

The affected community is now in a state of confusion and fear, with no reports of kidnappings following the attack.
