Another Boko Haram attack in Cameroon's Far North killing ten
“A Boko Haram suicide bomber detonated himself in the
night at Djakana close to the Nigerian border, killing ten people,” a secured
source speaking on condition of anonymity told AFP.
The information was confirmed by another source close to
the authorities of the region.
“At the time, seven people died, including the bomber.
Four wounded people died later. The other injured people are at the hospital.
We fear a rise in the number of victims,” the source said.
She added that most of the victims were members of the
vigilante committee tasked to track down Boko Haram fighters.
“They were gathered in a video room when the suicide
bomber infiltrated and detonated his explosive device,” the source said.
No suicide bomb attack has been recorded in the Far North
region in recent weeks. According to Cameroonian authorities, close to 1200
people have been killed ever since Boko Haram started attacking the Far North
region in 2013.
The Boko Haram insurgency since 2009 has left 20,000
people dead and 2.3 million displaced.
