Cameroonian Authorities have said that 107 Boko Haram members have been killed by its military in the Northern part of the country
Clashes between the troops and the insurgents began after the militants crossed the border between the towns of Amchide and Limani on Wednesday and continued on Thursday, the Cameroonian Defence Minister, Edgar Ngo’o said in a statement.
However, eight Cameroonian soldiers were killed and seven wounded in the fighting, while a Boko Haram vehicle packed with ammunition and explosives was destroyed and that the Cameroonian troops now controlled the area.
The Government of Cameroon had last week negotiated with the sect for the release of 27 hostages including 10 Chinese as well and the wife of Deputy Prime Minister.
