Suspected Boko Haram gunmen kidnap over 100 women, children in Nigeria


    MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (Reuters) - Suspected Boko Haram gunmen kidnapped more than 100 women and children and killed 35 people during a Sunday raid on the remote northeast Nigerian village of Gumskiri, a security source and resident said on Thursday.

    News from remote parts of Nigeria that are cut off from mobile communications sometimes takes days to travel.
