Mosque attack leaves 10 dead in Nigeria
Gunmen armed with rifles and machetes attacked a rural village in northern Nigeria today, killing at least 10 people, including worshippers leaving a mosque after prayers.
The attack happened in Dogon Dawa, a village in the pasturelands of Kaduna state where police and security forces maintain only a light presence. The number of dead could be higher as emergency responders acknowledged that estimates of those killed in the attacks varied wildly.
