Four Nigerians taking refuge in a village in the
far north of Cameroon have been killed by
members of Boko Haram in an attack that took
place on Friday October 24th.
According to a statement made available today
to AFP, the Cameroonian Ministry of Defence
said the sect members attacked "the village of
Glawi, killing four Nigerian refugees and
wounding one Camerounian, before being
pushed back by defence forces which pursued
them”.
The ministry also said two groups of Boko
Haram members had also tried to enter another
border village with Nigeria but they were
“immediately intercepted and neutralised by
our defence forces who destroyed three 4×4
vehicles equipped with machine guns, killing 27
assailants,”.
39 members of the sect were confirmed dead
after the various attacks
