Death toll in Nigeria village raided by gunmen rises to 48, police say

Unidentified gunmen on motorcycles swooped on a remote village on Friday, looting shops and setting houses ablaze.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets foreground the reported death toll and police attribution, but they differ in emphasis. Al Jazeera’s headline stays close to the police framing and, in its extract, is alone in specifying that officers said a large group attacked Binnari village in Taraba State. BBC News adds looting and says police are searching for other casualties, with officials warning the toll could rise further.
