Terrorists from the Boko Haram Takfiri group have killed at least 13 people from a village in northeastern Nigeria. 

The attack happened in the restive Borno state late Sunday, according to authorities and witnesses. 

The attack began when the Takfiri terrorists stormed the village and started to open fire on people and burn houses. 

Meanwhile, the Nigerian government said it carried out airstrikes in the northeast of the country to repel an attack by Boko Haram and killed a “large number” of the terrorists on Sunday. 

Boko Haram has staged a string of strikes targeting markets in Nigeria, Chad and Cameroon that have killed and wounded scores in the past month.
