Women suicide bombers kill four in north Cameroon

Published on: 

A pair of women suicide bombers killed four people and left a trail of injury in north Cameroon on Thursday, the second such attacks this week in a region targeted by Nigeria's Boko Haram Islamists.

Only two attacks in the town of Kerawa were successful and three others were foiled, a member of a local vigilante group said.

“There were new suicide attacks this morning in Kerawa,” said a regional security source contacted by AFP. “Four civilians were killed. Many others were hurt.”

The member of the vigilante committee set up to ward off such attacks said the assailants were both women and confirmed that six people had died in all, including the bombers.
