Dozens killed in triple suicide attack

30 people were killed and more than 80 others injured in a triple suicide attack in the town of Mandarari, in Nigeria.

Three female suicide bombers detonated their explosive belts in a local market and outside a nearby camp for people displaced by Boko Haram violence.

The attacks happened on a weekly market day when people from the town and nearby villages flood the market to buy and sell food, clothing and livestock.

Twenty-eight people were initially killed at the explosion site, and two others were taken to hospital in the town of Maiduguri, where they died at admission, according to a medic at the state-run hospital.
