N'Djamena (AFP) - Three soldiers and 123 Boko Haram militants were killed when the Islamist group attacked a Chadian army contingent in northern Cameroon, the Chadian military said Friday.

Twelve soldiers were wounded in the attacks staged by the Islamist group on Thursday and Friday near the border town of Fotokol, according to a military statement read out on national television.

Chad sent a convoy of troops and military vehicles into neighbouring Cameroon on January 17 to deal with the growing threat Boko Haram poses in the region.

"The enemy was repelled by our defensive forces," the general staff's statement said, adding that the troops had "routed" the Islamists in the second attack.

1. A "take no prisoners" policy produces one of two outcomes...

People will either quit the cause or figure they've got nothing to lose.

2. Too bad about the three soldiers.

3. See what happens when they run into some REAL soldiers?

Hopefully this will boost the Chadian forces confidence. Maybe they can wipe out several hundred more of the scum
