In Ayati, Nigeria, a rural or semi-rural landscape features a camouflaged armored personnel carrier (APC) or mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicle positioned on a muddy, unpaved dirt road under a partly cloudy sky. The vehicle, a 4x4 or 6x6, is primarily tan and green, with multiple windows and an open top hatch revealing at least one occupant. The front of the vehicle is submerged in a prominent mud puddle. In the immediate foreground, a uniformed soldier, seen from behind, walks along the dirt road towards the vehicle and the crowd. The soldier wears dark camouflage fatigues and black boots, carrying a rifle. Numerous civilians, predominantly men and boys, are gathered on both sides of the road, observing the scene. On the left, a smaller group of men and boys stands near the vehicle, some in the muddy area, with one boy in a yellow shirt holding his hands on his head. On the right, a larger crowd of civilians is assembled on an elevated patch of ground bordered by tall green vegetation. The environment includes dense green foliage, tall grasses, and various trees, including a large deciduous tree in the background. Several traditional huts with thatched roofs are visible among the trees in the distant background. The dirt road itself is reddish-brown, with visible ruts and muddy sections.
