When asked if six children were killed by a NAF fighter jet, Matane replied, \u201cYes, it occurred, the government is looking into the incident and an investigation is ongoing to ascertain what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the chairperson Coalition of Shiroro Associations, Salis Sambo, who spoke to our correspondent, the children got killed when the fighter jets tried to bomb some terrorists who ran into the community for safety.<\/p>\n

He said the affected children were returning from the stream where they had gone to fetch water, adding that four of the children were members of the same family.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was the terrorists<\/a> that they were targeting. That week, there were about four airstrikes carried out in Shiroro and scores of terrorists were killed. The terrorists ran into the community to take refuge and when the explosives were shelled, it affected the children. It wasn\u2019t deliberate,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
