Nigeria: Investigation opened after airstrike on market

An investigation has been opened in Nigeria following an airstrike on the village of Jilli in Yobe State, targeting Boko Haram jihadists. Witnesses report that civilians were killed, with Amnesty International estimating the death toll at 100 and 35 others injured. The operation was conducted based on weak intelligence regarding the movements of Boko Haram members, in an area already affected by blunders that have claimed at least 500 civilian lives since 2017.
