Boko Haram terrorists stormed the remote village of Kautuva in Damboa Local Government Area (LGA) in Borno State on Tuesday morning and killed four people while setting homes ablaze.
A member of the civilian Joint Task Force in Damboa detailed the incident to a SaharaReporters correspondent by phone, adding that some women were abducted by the insurgents.
"They came shortly after Muslims' early morning prayers and started burning all the houses. We attacked them but they overpower us and they killed people.
"They also abducted some women and forced people to flee their homes as they shot at the villagers," the source disclosed.
In recent times, Boko Haram have suffered casualties as the military's operations at the Boko Haram stronghold in Sambisa have weakened the insurgents' activities.
