Fighter jets bombed suspected Boko Haram camps near Majari on the border between Yobe and Borno states. Security forces have arrested 15 suspects linked to last week’s massacre at an agricultural college. The death toll from an attack by alleged Fulani gunmen last week on Zanga village in Kaduna state has risen to about 100; the attackers also destroyed 500 houses. The attacks in the area began in March, when 14 people were killed, and four churches, two schools, and 247 houses were burnt. The army plans to destroy a large quantity of confiscated IEDS in Borno. The trial of 17 Boko Haram suspects was adjourned for a second time in Lagos.
