Suspected Boko Harram militants1 from Nigeria have kidnapped dozens of people, many of them children in Cameroon. The country's information minister said militants attacked in the early hours of Sunday in the far north of Cameroon. From Lagos, here is Will Ross.
“Security sources say the Boko Harram fighters attacked the village of Mada in Mokolo district close to the Nigerian boarder. It's not known how many people were killed, or exactly how many were taken away by the jihadists, who also set fire to more than 20 homes. In recent years, almost all of the Boko Harram's attacks have been inside Nigeria. But now, villages, towns and barracks in Cameroon, are also been targeted. Neighbouring Chad has just sent soldiers to help Cameroon in the fight against the jihadists.”
The Lebanese Shiite movement Hezbollah says 5 of its fighters, including a senior commander, have been killed in an Israeli air strike in the Syrian sector2 of the Golan Heights. The incident took place days after the Hezbollah leader Hassam Narsrallah warned that his forces might retaliate3 against, what he called, repeated Israeli strikes inside Syria. Paul Wood reports from Beirut.
“Not only was a senior Hezbollah commander killed in the Israeli strike, but also we were told a commander of Iranian Revolutionary Guard, to compound the blow, the Hazbollah dead also included Jihad Mughniyeh, the son of the late Hezbollah military chief Imad Mughniyeh. It's not clear if this strike was another targeted killing4 as Israel calls them. Instead Israeli security sources quoted the saying that one of its helicopters on the border with Syria fired missile into a car conducting reconnaissance for a Hezbollah attack.”

The Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko has vowed6 to retake control of east regions of the country from pro-Russian rebels. He was speaking at a rally in the capital Kiev as the battle intensified7 around Donetsk airport in the east.
“We will not give up any piece of Ukrainian Land, we will ensure the return of Donbas, and we will show that one more highly important factor of our victory is our unity8. Now Ukraine is united as never before, and our unity is one more guarantee of victory.”
After days of heavy fighting at claims from the rebels they control the airport, the army said it’d retaken most of the ground. The two sides have been exchanging heavy artillery9 fire around Donetsk. Russia called for an immediate10 cease fire accusing Ukrainian forces of renewing their shelling of the area.”

The Belgian authorities have announced they would seek the extradition11 one of people arrested in Greece on Saturday over a possible link with the foiled Islamic attack. Earlier Belgian officials have denied any link between the group 6 people arrested in Greece and the Jihadi cell uncovered last Thursday. But a statement of the Belgian prosecutor12’s office said that after further analysis there were enough reasons to request the extradition.
Palestinian protestors have thrown eggs at the Canadian foreign minister John Baird as he was visiting the west bank city of Ramallah. Mr. Baired was not hit though some eggs struck his motorcade. Canada has opposed the Palestinian’s recent move to join the International Criminal Court. Mr. Baired said Canada would not apologize for its support for Israel.
“We take a strong position supporting all the liberal democratic state in the region. We take the view that progress is best made through negotiation13, not to unilaterally act on the other side. We are proud of that position. We believe it's the best one and don't apologize for.” Mr. Baired was in Ramallah to meet his Palestinian counterpart during a 5-day trip to the region.
