No fewer than 11 people have been killed and many others injured in a bomb blast in the Northern Region of Cameroon.
The incident occurred in Kolofata, near the town's stadium, with authorities saying a thirteen year old girl broke into a house detonating the explosive attached to herself.
The attack comes just a week after Cameroon's army said it had killed 100 members of the group and freed 900 hostages.
Suicide bombings, often performed by young women recruited by the extremist group, have become regular occurrences in the Far North region.
No organization has claimed responsibility for the blast, but it is believed that the Nigerian Boko Haram sect is behind it.
