  "summary": "Nigeria recorded a record-breaking 835 security-related deaths in October 2026, marking the highest monthly toll of the 2026 campaign season. The SARI Global security assessment documented 612 incidents during the month, a significant increase from the 535 incidents and 587 fatalities in September. The rise in fatalities was attributed to armed conflict, mass-casualty attacks, banditry, and other security-related events across the country. The report identified three major trends: increased lethality, expanding armed-group activity, and growing threats to civilian movement, particularly in the North-West and North-East regions.",
