Breaking News: At least 12 people, including women, children and men from the Bororo community, were killed early Wednesday morning in attacks on several localities in Ntumbaw, NW Region of Cameroon. Homes were also set ablaze during the violence. The killings, which reportedly occurred around 5 a.m., are being described as retaliatory attacks allegedly carried out by Ambazonian separatist fighters against members of the Bororo community. The community has been accused by the attackers of collaborating with the Cameroonian army, including allegedly providing information that led to a military operation days earlier in which about a dozen separatist fighters were killed. Residents say entire families were targeted as assailants moved through the area, setting houses on fire and forcing others to flee. The death toll from the morning attack is currently estimated at 12, though fears remain that the number could rise as access to some affected areas remains difficult. Videos seen by MMI are too graphic to be shared. #MMINews
