Tragedy in Zamfara: Military Airstrike Mistakenly Hits Vigilantes After Bandit Attack In a tragic turn of events, a Nigerian military airstrike intended to target fleeing bandits in Zamfara State has mistakenly struck local vigilantes, resulting in multiple casualties. The incident occurred in the Mani community of Maru Local Government Area, where bandits had earlier attacked, killing over 20 farmers and abducting more than 50 individuals.   According to reports, the military aircraft was deployed to provide aerial support following the bandit assault. However, it inadvertently fired upon members of the community vigilante group who were responding to the initial attack.  This incident has sparked outrage among residents and raised concerns about the accuracy of military operations in conflict-prone areas. The Zamfara State Government and security agencies have yet to release an official statement regarding the mishap.  The tragedy underscores the complexities and challenges faced by security forces in distinguishing between armed threats and community defense groups, especially in regions plagued by banditry and insurgency. #ZamfaraAirstrike #MilitaryMishap #VigilanteTragedy #BanditAttack #CommunityDefense
