Attack on a school in Nigeria

Attacking a school; Gunmen kidnap more than 100 students in Nigeria.

Gunmen stormed a high school in a northwestern Nigerian city, abducting more than 100 students and dozens of teachers, according to Reuters.

 The robbers reportedly entered the school at 11 a.m. local time and then began shooting and terrorizing the high school.

 At the same time, the number of abducted people is not clear, and others have stated that the number of abducted students is higher.

 No group or individual in Nigeria has yet claimed responsibility;  But schools have been repeatedly attacked and abducted by the Boko Haram terrorist group in Nigeria.

 The Boko Haram group was founded in Nigeria in 2002 by Salafist Mohammed Youssef, who has even questioned the sphericity of the earth, and has killed hundreds of thousands of people in terrorist attacks since 2009.
