Militants suspected to belong to Ansaru (a jihadist splinter group that broke away from Boko Haram) launched a pre-dawn assault on a military camp in Kaiama Local Government Area of Kwara state, in north-central Nigeria, killing at least three soldiers and wounding four others, including a local vigilante. The attackers, who struck at around 3 a.m. near the village of Kemanji — close to a section of Kainji National Park believed to serve as an Ansaru hideout — also seized eight motorcycles and an armed gun truck before withdrawing. Nigerian military and police authorities have yet to issue an official statement on the incident.
