A report claims Abubakar Shekau, leader of Boko Haram terror group, has been injured by an air strike, which also killed his deputy. French news media, AFP, claimed it learnt of the occurrence from civilian and security sources. The report stated two Nigerian Air Force jets bombarded fighters who were gathered for prayers in Balla village, some 40 kilometres (25 miles) from Damboa, on the edge of the Sambisa Forest, last Friday.

“Shekau was wounded in the bombings and is believed to be receiving treatment near the Nigerian border with Cameroon around Kolofata,” said one source with contacts within Boko Haram.

“His deputy, Abba Mustapha, alias Malam Abba, was killed in the attack along with another key lieutenant, Abubakar Gashua, alias Abu Aisha,” he added.
