Cameroon Army kills 116 Boko Haram fighters on december 18, 2014 at 4:35 pm in news Cameroon’s army said Thursday its troops had killed 116 Nigerian fighters from the Islamist Boko Haram group in the far north. Insurgents attacked an army base in Amchide on the border with Nigeria on Wednesday, but soldiers repelled them, inflicting heavy losses, the defence ministry said. “A column made up of a military truck and four pick-ups from the BIR (elite Rapid Intervention Battalion) were caught in an ambush that began with an explosion of a roadside bomb,” the army said. “At the same time…, the Amchide military base was attacked by hundreds of fighters from the sect, but the response from our defence forces was instant and appropriate,” the statement said. “There are 116 of the assailants dead on Cameroonian territory and undetermined casualties on the Nigerian territory from our artillery fire,” the statement said. “There is one dead on the Cameroonian side and one officer missing.” According to the army, the Boko Haram fighters destroyed a pick-up and a troop truck, as well as managing to capture another military truck. Boko Haram has grown in power in the area, where Cameroon and Nigeria are linked by a bridge. Militants have carried out repeated massacres of civilians and attacks on villages there, but are now increasingly active against military targets. |

EU court says Hamas should be removed from terror list on december 18, 2014 at 2:34 pm in news The Palestinian Islamist group, Hamas, should be removed from the European Union’s terrorist list, an EU court ruled on Thursday. The court added that the decision was to include it was based on media reports, not considered analysis. In its ruling, however, the bloc’s second highest tribunal said member states could keep Hamas’s assets frozen for three months to give time for further review or for an appeal. The EU’s foreign policy arm said the bloc continued to view Hamas as a terrorist group. “This was a legal ruling of the court based on procedural grounds. “ We will look into this and decide on appropriate remedial action,’’ the spokeswoman, Maja Kocijanic said. The U.S. has urged the European Union not to change its stance. “We believe that the EU should maintain its terrorism sanctions on Hamas,’’ U.S. State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, told a regular news briefing. Israel, which has clashed repeatedly with Europe in recent years over Palestinian statehood ambitions, demanded Hamas remain blacklisted and said the ruling showed “staggering hypocrisy’’ toward a Jewish state founded after the Holocaust. “It seems that too many in Europe, on whose soil six million Jews were slaughtered, have learned nothing. “But we in Israel, we have learned,’’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. He branded Hamas “a murderous terrorist organisation’.’ According to a report, Hamas holds sway in the Gaza Strip and its founding charter calls for the destruction of Israel; it has regularly battled Israel, most recently in a 50-day war this summer. Most Western countries say it is a terrorist organisation, pointing to years of indiscriminate rocket strikes out of Gaza and waves of suicide attacks, primarily between 1993 and 2005. |
