Nigeria fighter jets bomb town held by Boko Haram>>>See More

                         
 
                       

Kano (Nigeria) (AFP) - Nigerian fighter jets have bombed the northeast town of Malam Fatori, controlled by Boko Haram Islamists, the military said Thursday.

There was no initial word on casualties or whether Boko Haram fighters had fled the area.Witnesses and some media reports said troops and airforce planes from neighbouring Chad were involved in the operation on Nigerian soil but Abuja neither confirmed nor denied the claim.

"Malam Fatori is within the area of operation covered by the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) of which Chad has always been a part," defence spokesman Chris Olukolade told AFP in a text message.

"The Nigerian airforce has also been conducting (an) air mission there for two days now," he added. "It is all part of the ongoing efforts against terrorism."

The MNJTF was set up more than a decade ago to combat smuggling in the remote region but as the Nigerian Islamist insurgency in the area intensified, the mandate of the force changed.

Residents in the town of Bosso, which lies next to Malam Fatori but across the border in Niger, said the bombardment began early on Wednesday and lasted for several hours.

"At around 8:00 am (0700 GMT) we started seeing three military jets encircling Malam Fatori and soon after (they) began dropping bombs," said Idrissa Ari, a Bosso resident.

Reaching locals inside Malam Fatori is difficult given the collapse of the mobile phone network on the Nigerian side of the border.

The authorities in N'Djamena did not respond to requests seeking comment on their alleged involvement in the operation.

The Boko Haram uprising has become a regional crisis, with the four directly affected countries -- Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria -- agreeing to boost cooperation to contain the threat.

The African Union's annual summit in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa is this week expected to focus heavily on the threat from Boko Haram.

AU chief Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma has called the insurgency "a threat to the whole continent".

- Chadian troops in Cameroon -

A brutal attack this month on the Nigerian town of Baga, near Chad and Niger, killed several hundred people and raised fresh questions about the Nigerian military's capacity to face Boko Haram alone.

An aerial bombardment inside Nigeria by the Chadian airforce, if confirmed, would mark a major development in bilateral security cooperation.

While it was unclear whether Chadian troops had begun operating in Nigeria, security sources said soldiers from Chad had arrived in Cameroon ahead of an expected campaign against the Islamists.

"The first Chadian soldiers were deployed yesterday (Wednesday) in Fotokol," a Cameroonian security source told AFP, requesting anonymity.

Fotokol is just 500 meters (0.3 miles) from the Nigerian town of Gamboru, currently controlled by Boko Haram.

A senior Cameroonian officer said the deployment was part of "preliminary action" for the Chadian army to take on Boko Haram alongside troops from Yaounde.

The insurgents control large parts of Nigeria's Borno state, which shares borders with Cameroon, Chad and Niger.

Meanwhile, local sources in three areas of Cameroon's far north reported that 10 people had their throats slit by suspected Boko Haram militants this week.

A hitchhiker was caught off-guard when a world leader offered to give him a lift.

Gerhald Acosta was looking for a ride on his way home from his job at a paper mill plant in southwestern Uruguay, earlier this month. He later explained in a Facebook post that though several cars passed him, an SUV with a government license plate pulled over, according to RT.com. Upon getting inside, Acosta realized that Uruguayan President Jose Mujica and his wife, Sen. Lucia Topolansky, were in the vehicle.

"I know this woman. It was Lucia, with Manuela the dog, and Pepe (Jose) in the front seat," Acosta told El Observador, according to Fox News Latino. "I couldn't believe it. The president was giving me a ride." 

 

Angry youths stone Nigerian leader's convoy; police fire gas

 

JALINGO, Nigeria (AP) — Youths angry at the Nigerian government's failure to fight Islamic extremists threw stones Thursday at President Goodluck Jonathan's electioneering convoy in the eastern town of Jalingo, breaking windshields and windows on several vehicles. An Associated Press reporter was unable to see if anyone was hurt.

Police used tear gas and whips to disperse the mob

From Jalingo, Jonathan flew to Yola, capital of Adamawa state, where officials had declared the route of his motorcade a no-go area. The presidential cavalcade already had been stoned in northern Katsina city and northeast Bauchi last week. Youths in Bauchi flung shoes and plastic bottles at Jonathan's podium at a rally.

In Jalingo, soldiers guarded billboards and posters of Jonathan, who is running for re-election on Feb. 14. Protesters shouted that the troops should instead be fighting the Boko Haram insurgents blamed for the deaths of some 10,000 people in the past year.

"Why are they using soldiers and other security operatives? They should be deployed to Sambisa and fight with Boko Haram, not with innocent civilians," one youth yelled as he tore down a poster of a smiling Jonathan.

Sambisa Forest is where the insurgents have camps and where they are believed to be holding some of the 276 schoolgirls abducted from a boarding school in the remote town of Chibok in April — a mass kidnapping that brought international outrage.

Dozens of the girls escaped on their own but 219 remain missing, a reminder of the failures of Nigeria's government and military.

At a rally in Yola, Jonathan promised his government will do more to help some of the million-plus people driven from their homes in the 5-year-old insurgency.

"We are totally committed to the liberation of Adamawa state," Jonathan pledged. But Adamawa state legislator Adamu Kamale complained Wednesday that seven villages and Michika town have been under attack by Boko Haram since Friday and that he has appealed in vain for soldiers to come and fight the extremists.

It is unclear if displaced people will be able to vote. Hundreds of thousands have fled across borders. And it is not known how many remain trapped in more than 100 northeastern village and towns held by the insurgents.

Nigeria's home-grown Boko Haram group has been attacking Cameroonian villages and troops, broadening the conflict and raising fears among Nigeria's neighbors.

Washington Woman Slits Throat Of 3 Young Kids To Quiet Them.Read More

 

Six-month old Emilio Capone gets a vaccination at the clinic of paediatrician Thomas Fischbach in the western town of Solingen September 4, 2012. 

Mums irritated by noisy kids either shout at them, spank them or make the noisemakers stand in a corner. Not 29-year-old Christina Booth of Olympia, Washington, who has a different but bloody way of making her children tone done – she slits their throats.

Booth was arrested on Sunday for investigation of attempted murder after she stabbed her three small children so they would be silent when her husband, Thomas, a soldier, comes home, Thurston County Deputy Prosecutor Craig Juris said on Monday.

Thomas is assigned at the 1st Special Forces Group at the Joint Base Lewis-McChord.

The crying tykes were aged 2 and a set of twins who were only 6 months old, reports the Charlotte Observer. The children are now in stable condition after undergoing surgery at a hospital and has been placed under custody of Washington’s Child Protection Services.

The throat-slitting could be because Christina was drunk on Saturday night after she and Thomas had two large glasses of wine each after they watched a movie at home. He said proof of her intoxication was her speech was slurred.

Thomas added that Christina was suffering from post-partum depression, while she told detectives that she was having a tough time caring for the children since Thomas never helps her and is even annoyed when the kids cry and make noise.

Court documents said that Christina hit her breaking point when the twins started to cry after she took them to bed. She got a knife from the dishwasher and cut the throat first of her 2-year-old daughter and covered her with a blanket. She proceeded to slit the throats of the twins.

According to Olympia Police Lt. Jim Costa, 911 got a call at 1:17 a.m. on Sunday from a crying woman that her kids were wailing and wouldn’t stop, probably because they need a doctor.

After a minute, a man said the kids were bleeding from the neck and needed an ambulance.

Although no formal charges has been filed against Booth, the court set bail at $3 million. Thomas is not a suspect.

Despite Bullet In Head, Daughter Calls 911 To Report Family Massacre By Father In Queens.US

  

A display of 7-round .45 caliber handguns are seen at Coliseum Gun Traders Ltd. in Uniondale, New York January 16, 2013. President Barack Obama proposed a new assault weapons ban and mandatory background checks for all gun buyers on Wednesday as he tried to channel national outrage over the Newtown school massacre into the biggest U.S. gun-control push in decades   

Despite a gunshot wound in the head inflicted by her father, a 12-year-old girl in Queens, New York, called 911 on Saturday morning and sought help. Besides the girl, Jonathan Walker, 34, also shot his girlfriend, the mum of his girlfriend and a younger daughter for unknown reason.

When the police arrived, the brave 12-year-old opened the door for the cops and talked to them for 15 minutes even if she had a head wound. The bullet exited through her eyes, reports the New York Post.

The police rushed her to the Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park where she remains in critical condition.

Walker, weighed 260 pounds and stood at 6 feet and 6 inches, was a nightclub bouncer. He reportedly went from room to room and shot Kayla Walker, 7; Shantai Hale, 31; and Viola Warren, 62.  The three are his daughter, wife and mother-in-law, respectively; all sustained head wounds and declared dead at the scene of the crime.

A neighbour said the Walkers were a “nice, happy family.” Jonathan was even seen smiling outside their home on Friday. The family had been seen taking walks, dining and driving around the neighbourhood. That night, Walker told a friend that he was watching a movie in Netflix with his family and having some beer.

NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said the Walkers had little evidence of discord, except for two minor domestic incidents in 2005 and 2006.

Wendell Warren, the brother of Viola, said the Walkers were supposed to spend time with relatives on Friday night.

Walker arrived home at 5:38 a.m. By 5:45 a.m., the elder daughter called 911 to report the shooting.

Also living in the same house was Jennifer Warren, the sister of Viola, who stays on the ground floor and didn’t hear the gunshots because of a hearing problem. “It’s a good thing she didn’t hear the shots because she would have come running upstairs and I would’ve missed another sister. That saved her,” Warren told the New York Post.

Walker’s dead body was found inside his car, a silver 2013 GMC Acadia. He committed suicide using the same .45 caliber gun that took the life of three of his loved ones. The vehicle was parked in an area near the John F. Kennedy Airport.

Warren said that while Walker drinks, he didn’t have a drinking problem. “There was no indication of anything that could make him remotely do this, none whatsoever. It just came out of nowhere,” he adds.
