Terrorist attacks have been on the rise in northeast Nigeria, with Boko Haram and ISWAP responsible for many of the recent attacks.
Over the past few weeks, there have been several incidents of landmine attacks on troops in the region, leaving many soldiers badly injured.
In addition, there have been targeted attacks on civilians, with the most recent attack resulting in the deaths of ten villagers in Dogsa village, Yobe state which left eleven lives dead.
The terrorists accused the villagers of Dogsa of leaking intelligence to the military about their presence in the area and ordered them to leave the community shortly after the attack.
The worsening security situation in the northeast has raised concerns for the safety of civilians and military personnel alike.
While the Nigerian military has been working to counter the terrorist groups, attacks continue to occur, highlighting the need for greater efforts to achieve lasting peace and stability in the region.
With tensions running high, it remains to be seen what the future holds for the people of northeast Nigeria.
