65,000 flee a few hundred religious fanatics? A well regulated militia could have nipped this problem in the bud. The military and the UN peacekeepers are apparently inept but 65,000 townsfolk should be able to fend these crazies off.

The useless UN is overwhelmed by being very, very busy... like:
criticizing the US or Israel.

Jao Baoden will be inviting them to the USA in 3, 2, 1...

They might actually be a better class of refugee than all those Central Americans which means they may be conservatives so... never mind.

When does this transition from “Sectarian Unrest” to “Civil War?” Really, what is going on here? Isis is taking the initiative in genocidal terrorism in Africa, and Biden certainly has no concept of what is or will happen. No surprise there.

Can't be mass murder. That only happens in the US because we have too many guns owned by privileged white people.

Portland Or. Look closely. This is your future if you allow those Independent Zones to continue without challenge.

Seems like Napalm would be a viable solution.

At some point, you just have to say, WTF and make your move.

Drop 65,000 machine guns.
Some cellphones for communications.
Provide satellite surveillance.

When I wrote this I had what’s happening in Nigeria in mind
The Vatican under the command of Pope Francis is busy rebuking ownership of firearms for personal protection to the cheers of Islamic followers as well as decrying attempting any evangelical conversion of islamists plus suppressing followers of the pre Vatican 2 liturgy form including the latin mass But when it comes to other forms of mono theistic beliefs such as the One World Abu Dhabi Movement. Francis refuses to say one word disclaiming and decrying what practice adherents of the Islam code Sharia not only claim, but truly believe that God has authorized them to any evil means using force or decption used to convert is justified as well as kill those who refuse to submit to their version of Gods will .

The suppression of the Simbas demonstrated that in the 1960s in the Congo. Government forces many times the strength of a Simba raiding party would flee without firing a shot, until the government used a force of European mercenaries smaller than the Simbas to rout them.

I’ve seen YouTubes of the civil war in Liberia where “rebels” would be dancing in the street firing machine guns from the hip at far-off targets - then they all run for cover when a few rounds come their way...
