Boko Haram kidnaps 185 women and children, kills 32 peopleBoko Haram insurgents kidnapped at least 185 women and children, and killed 32 people in a raid in northeastern Nigeria this week, local officials and residents said. Gunmen in pickup trucks attacked the village of Gumsuri, just north of Chibok on Sunday, burning homes and shooting men, before herding women and children together. They gathered the women and children and took them away in trucks after burning most of the village with petrol bombs, a local government official said on condition anonymity for fear of reprisal. News of the attack took four days to emerge due to lack of communication due to the loss of telecommunications towers in the region during previous attacks.
