Lagos, Nigeria

A series of bomb and gun attacks targeting police stations, mosques and churches left 65 people dead in northeastern Nigeria, the Red Cross said Saturday.

Attackers also left scores injured probably more than 100 in a three-hour rampage in the Yobe state city of Damaturu, according to Ibrahim Bulama of the Red Cross. Sixty-three people died.

“It is a very bad scene,” he said. Gunmen first attacked the police headquarters and the anti-terror office before moving to churches and mosques, he said. Most of the casualties were police officers.  In Potiskum, also located in Yobe state, gunmen attacked a book shop near the police station, killing two and injuring 5, the Red Cross said. The attacks came the same day suicide bombers suspected to belong to a militant Islamist group targeted a military base in nearby Maiduguri.

Three suicide bombers drove a stolen black SUV toward a Joint Task Force headquarters, but could not get through the gate, military spokesman Lt. Col. Hassan Mohammed said. The blast damaged roofs and walls of the base. Mohammed said two other simultaneous explosions took place at other military facilities. An number of soldiers suffered injuries.

Hombres armados matan a 65 en Nigeria

Una serie de ataques con bombas y armas dirigidas a las comisarías, mezquitas e iglesias dejaron 65 personas muertas en el noreste de Nigeria, la Cruz Roja dijo el sábado.

Los atacantes también dejaron decenas de heridos, probablemente más de 100 en una orgía de tres horas en la ciudad del estado de Yobe Damaturu, de acuerdo con Ibrahim Bulama de la Cruz Roja. Sesenta y tres personas murieron.

“Es una escena muy malo”, dijo. Hombres armados atacó por primera vez la sede de la policía y la oficina contra el terrorismo antes de pasar a las iglesias y mezquitas, dijo. La mayoría de las víctimas eran policías.

En Potiskum, también se encuentra en el estado de Yobe, hombres armados atacaron una tienda de libros cerca de la estación de policía, matando a dos e hiriendo a cinco, dijo la Cruz Roja. Los ataques se produjeron el mismo día atacantes suicidas sospechosos de pertenecer a un grupo islamista dirigido a una base militar en las cercanías de Maiduguri.
Tres atacantes suicida condujo un vehículo negro robado a una sede de Fuerza de Tarea Conjunta, pero no pudo obtener a través de la puerta, el portavoz militar, teniente coronel Hassan Mohamed. La explosión dañó los techos y las paredes de la base.

Mohammed dijo que dos explosiones simultáneas tuvieron lugar otros en otras instalaciones militares. Un número indeterminado de soldados nigerianos sufrieron heridas. Culpó a los militantes del grupo Boko Haram por los ataques. El nombre del grupo significa “la educación occidental es pecado”.
