More than 45 people were killed when two female suicide bombers blew themselves up in a crowded market in north-east Nigeria on Tuesday, the latest in a wave of such attacks blamed on Boko Haram. The explosions in the Borno state capital targeted the same Monday Market area where at least 15 people died on July 1 in a blast also thought to have been carried out by the Islamist militants.
Tuesday's attacks came after the militants seized control of another town in Nigeria's restive north-east, adding to their increasing haul of territory captured in recent months.
