flag Five wild elephants attacked a village in India, killing six people and injuring one.

flag A herd of five wild elephants attacked Gondwar village in Jharkhand’s Hazaribagh district early Friday, killing six people, including four members of one family, with two young children among the victims. flag The attack, which occurred between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m., left one child critically injured and hospitalized. flag Residents, unfamiliar with elephants, attempted to drive them away, but the animals continued their rampage before retreating into the forest. flag The forest department confirmed the elephants had recently roamed across nearby districts and had caused prior casualties. flag Authorities are investigating, noting confusion on both sides due to the elephants’ unfamiliarity with the village and residents’ lack of experience with such encounters. flag The incident adds to a surge in human-elephant conflicts in the region, with over 20 deaths in the past 45 days.
