An handout picture taken on July 26, 2015 and released by the Nigerian Army shows a vehicle of Boko Haram fighters destroyed with IED (improvised explosive device) by soldiers following clashes to take control of the town of Dikwa, northeastern Nigeria in the Borno State.
At least seven civilians were killed Friday in a suicide attack in Kolofata, northern Cameroon, a region where Nigeria’s Boko Haram Islamists are highly active, local officials said.
“We’ve registered eight deaths at the site, including the suicide bomber,” a regional security source said, following the attack at a food stall. The toll was confirmed by a source close to local authorities.
