Brutal jihadis Boko Haram burn children alive in evil attack

Scores of charred bodies and corpses riddled with bullet holes littered the streets after Saturday’s barbaric assault on Dalori village and two nearby camps which are housing 25,000 refugees, according to survivors.

Survivor Alamin Bakura said the harrowing terror attack – which killed several of his family members – continued for almost four hours.

The assault was the third attack in just one week carried out by the fanatics.

Boko Haram has ramped up its hit-and-run tactics on villages and suicide bombings on places of worship and markets since it began losing control of the territory.

In the neighbouring Adamawa state, a suicide bomber believed to be a Boko Haram militant killed around 10 people on Friday.

And at least 12 were killed last Wednesday in an attack on the Borno state village of Chibok.

Nigerian military spokesman Colonel Mustapha Ankas said insurgents entered Dalori in two cars and on motorcycles before opening fire on residents and burning down houses.

He said: "While people were running for their dear lives… three female suicide bombers attempted to make their way into the crowd… and subsequently got blown up.”

One official who was at the scene said 12 bodies were burnt so severely they were unrecognisable.

They said: "We can't even pick those ones, they were seriously burnt.”

Last August it was revealed the heinous terror group sent hundreds of militants to Libya to help ISIS conquer the war-torn country.

The Nigeria-based fanatics have dispatched up to 200 heavily armed troops to bolster ISIS forces in north Africa in a terrifying sign of the growing alliance between the two feared groups.
