In what’s being called the single worst atrocity in Benue state’s recent history, up to 200 Christians were brutally massacred by Islamic extremists in Yelewata, Nigeria. The victims, many of whom were families already displaced by previous violence, were attacked while sleeping in repurposed market buildings. Militants set fire to shelters and targeted anyone trying to escape, leaving corpses scattered and survivors traumatized. Local pastors and international advocates are urgently calling for global attention and action, warning that these attacks are part of a larger campaign to drive Christians from their land. With thousands killed and displaced in recent years, Nigeria’s Christian communities are facing a crisis that demands the world’s response.
