Two female suicide bombers, suspected to be members of the Boko Haram sect, killed three Nigerians in a truck full of refugees in a town in Cameroon’s Far North region, a local government source told Reuters.
Military sources had said earlier that they suspected the bombers’ target was a nearby mosque in Fotokol.
The first bomb went off during a security check and it was unclear if the second bomber had detonated her bomb or whether she had been killed first by Cameroonian forces.
