KANO, Nigeria, Feb 26 (Reuters) - An operation to rescue more than 300 girls kidnapped in Nigeria had failed to pinpoint their location by late on Friday, almost 24 hours after gunmen seized them in a raid on their school.
The raid in Zamfara state, where the governor ordered all boarding schools to close immediately, was the second such kidnapping in little over a week in the country's northwest, a region increasingly targeted by militants and criminal gangs.

Gunmen have kidnapped 317 schoolgirls in the town of Jangebe in Zamfara, northwest Nigeria, police said.
Armed bandits fired sporadically during the late-night attack on the Government Girls Science Secondary School, according to Zamfara’s information commissioner Sulaiman Tanau Anka.
“Information available to me said they came with vehicles and moved the students, they also moved some on foot,” he added.
Zamfara Police are currently searching for the missing girls along with the military.
It is not immediately clear who was responsible for the kidnapping.
Militant Islamist group Boko Haram and a branch of Islamic State are active in northern Nigeria, but kidnapping by other armed groups – mostly for ransom – are increasingly common.

The raid in Zamfara state, where the governor ordered all boarding schools to close immediately, was the second such kidnapping in little over a week in the country's northwest, a region increasingly targeted by militants and criminal gangs.
Zamfara police said they had begun search-and-rescue operations with the army to find the "bandits" who took the 317 girls from the Government Girls Science Secondary School in the town of Jangebe.
