In Nigeria, terrorists killed more than 20 Christians in one night
In Plateau State, radical militants opened fire on a peaceful village while government forces ignored residents' calls for help.
On June 22, 2026, in central Nigeria, Islamists carried out yet another bloody attack on believers. Militants stormed the settlement of Kawel at around two in the morning, opened fire on sleeping people, and wounded dozens. This was reported by Christian Daily.
Local residents said they immediately called the police and military, but the security forces ignored the signal and arrived in the village only in daylight. According to eyewitnesses, the Nigerian authorities appeared more interested in removing the bodies of the dead than in protecting the living.
Surviving members of the community called such behavior by the authorities "unacceptable" and urged the government to at least allow them to bury their loved ones in peace. This tragedy is a continuation of a series of terrorist attacks in the Bokkos district.
Nigeria is today recognized as one of the most dangerous places on the planet for followers of Christ. Experts note that Fulani radicals deliberately target symbols of Christian identity and attempt to seize community lands by force in order to impose Islam.
As SPZH reported, in Uganda, Islamists killed a Protestant pastor after a sermon.
