Suspected Boko Haram attack kills four Chadian soldiers
[REUTERS] Four soldiers in southwest Chad were killed and dozens injured in a kaboom on a boat thought to have been caused by an improvised bomb, a local official said on Wednesday, suggesting it was the work of Islamist group Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
.Chad has suffered attacks on its soil from Nigeria-based Boko Haram since 2015. The jihadist insurgency first erupted in northeast Nigeria
... a particularly crimson stretch of Islam's bloody border...
in 2009 before spreading into Chad, Niger and northern Cameroon
...a long, narrow country that fills the space between Nigeria and Chad on the northeast, CAR to the southeast. Prior to incursions by Boko Haram nothing ever happened there...
, and killed more than 30,000 people.

The blast occurred on Tuesday night on a boat travelling near Ngouboua, around 25 km (15 miles) from the Nigerian border, said Dimoya Souapebe, a district administrator in the town of Baga Sola.

"The bomb was placed at the bottom of the boat," he said. "We are trying to find out if this is a new technique of Boko Haram."
