Shooting Bonny Island

Late on Saturday night militants carried out an attack on a Nigerian Navy houseboat on Bonny Island. They later went into Bonny Town and in a large gunfight several civilians, including a pregnant woman, were murdered. It has been reported that one of the navy men was beheaded by the terrorists.

The area around Bonny, especially in the waterways is getting more dangerous. The international Maritime Organisation now classes it as one of the most dangerous waterways in the world. Be very careful when flying around there.
