A double suicide attack killed six civilians on Wednesday in Cameroon’s restive Far North, which is regularly hit by Nigeria-based Boko Haram jihadists, security sources said.
The deadly blasts happened in Kolofata, where nine people died in a double suicide bombing in early June.
“There were eight killed, six civilians and the two attackers,” a source close to Cameroon’s security service said of Wednesday’s violence.
Another security source confirmed the death toll, but no further details were immediately available.
In mid-June two civilians were killed in an attack in Limani, which is near Kolofata and the Nigerian border. Earlier in the month a soldier was also killed in Kolofata.
