YAOUNDE: At least 11 people were killed when two female suicide bombers blew themselves up near an army camp in troubled northern Cameroon in an attack blamed on Boko Haram Islamists.
President Paul Biya condemned the "cowardly and odious" attack, which took place on Sunday, and said he had given "strict instructions to the defence and security forces to secure our country."
Northern Cameroon, like Nigeria, Chad and Niger, has been hit in bloody attacks by Boko Haram, whose insurgency has now expanded across the region from the militants' homeland Nigeria.
