At least 100 villagers were killed in a brutal attack by suspected Boko Haram Islamic extremists in northeastern Nigeria.
The militants opened fire on a market, worshippers, and homes in the Tarmuwa council area of Yobe state.
The attack, which occurred on Sunday evening, involved more than 50 extremists riding motorcycles.
They set buildings ablaze after firing indiscriminately.
Boko Haram has been responsible for a decade-long insurgency in the region, seeking to establish a radical Islamic state.
The death toll from the attack has been disputed, with local officials reporting a lower figure.
However, community leaders and survivors believe the actual number of victims is much higher.
The attack is a stark reminder of the ongoing violence in northeastern Nigeria, where armed groups continue to operate with impunity.
The Nigerian government has faced criticism for its handling of the security crisis, with many accusing it of failing to protect civilians.
