One of Boko Haram�s camps in Cameroon has been bombed by the Cameroonian army, killing many insurgents. A security official disclosed that the camp was shelled on Wednesday, August 27, by tanks stationed on the frontier at Fotokol (on Cameroon�s side of the border). �Seen from Fotokol this morning, Gamboru looks empty and smells of death. Nobody knows how many Boko Haram members were killed, but it is obvious that many were,� the source said.Confirming the incident, a local police officer said the camps were abandoned houses which the sect has been occupying since they entered Gamboru, which is on the border of Cameroon. �We think they still control the town, because there are many of them and they didn�t all gather in the same place,� he said. This is coming barely 3 days after Boko Haram seized control of Gamboru-Ngala, a key township on the border between Nigeria and Cameroon.
