Boko Haram launches fresh deadly attacks in Nigeria, Chad Maiduguri

Dozens of people were feared killed when Boko Haram Islamists armed with guns and explosives attacked a village in northeastern Nigeria, officials said Sunday. Suicide bombers also carried out deadly attacks on Sunday in the Lake Chad region, an area frequently targeted by Boko Haram fighters, a local security official said. Nigeria's army said the jihadists attacked Dalori, some 12 kilometres (seven miles) from Maiduguri late Saturday, and burnt down the village.
