A Barnabas Fund project partner in Cameroon reported in July the ‘theft of domestic animals, kidnapping of children, and killings … suicide bombers and bombs in markets and public places.’

The situation for Christians in Cameroon has improved since July last year, as attacks from Boko Haram are now sporadic. But in the rainy season many roads are impassable, restricting the mobility of security forces. This benefits Boko Haram ‘who can easily follow the trails on foot to go and mount their attacks.’

The greatest danger is now starvation for the many refugees and internally displaced people who have previously fled to Cameroon to escape Boko Haram.
