Six persons have died after a military airstrike targeting bandits mistakenly claimed their lives. The incident happened at Yauni Community of Zakka Ward in Safana Local Government Area of Katsina State.
It was learned that those killed were mostly single family members, comprising three children, a man, and two women.
The military fighter jet was dispatched for reinforcement after security operatives tried to repel an attack by bandits in Saturday’s Local Government election when it mistakenly dropped a bomb on the Yauni community located in the Southern part of Zakka village
Recall that earlier in the year, a military airstrike in Zamfara mistakenly killed 16 persons. Those affected included members of the Zamfara Community Protection Guard (ZCPG), local vigilantes, and residents
