Nigeria

A female suicide bomber detonated explosives near a government college in northern Nigeria, injuring at least three people. The US State Department responded to criticism by the Nigerian ambassador about a lack of military assistance in the fight against terrorism, stating there had been “a great deal” of aid, while acknowledging that attack helicopters had been held back due to local inability to use them.
