In Cameroon, 5 persons were killed and two others injured when four female Boko Haram suicide bombers blew themselves up near country's northwest border with Nigeria. The incident took place in Mora town during the early hours of Saturday morning. <br/><br/>Mora is home to the headquarters of the first sector of the Mixed Multinational Force, an anti-insurgent regional force, as well as a large artillery unit of the Cameroonian army. <br/><br/>An eyewitness said the suicide bombers attempted to enter the town, when they were discovered by a vigilante team, prompting them to detonate the bombs. Though Boko Haram was born in Nigeria, the Islamic State-affiliated group has carried out frequent attacks in Cameroon, Chad and Niger.<br/>
