Boko Haram terrorists launched an attack on an army base in the Lake Chad area on Monday that left six Cameroonian soldiers dead, according to a report by AFP.
“Boko Haram attacked a base of the Mixed Multinational Force on the island of Darak (on Lake Chad) at around 22:00 on Monday,” a military source revealed to AFP.
Another source added that a civilian from a vigilante counter-terrorist group was also killed.
Reuters reported that suspected Boko Haram militants also launched two separate attacks in Cameroon, including a foiled suicide-bombing attempt, but neither claimed any casualties.
