More than 100 innocent people have been killed after the Nigerian air force accidentally bombed a refugee camp.
Fighter jets performed an air strike against Islamist militant group Boko Haram in the northeast, a military official said.
 

General Lucky Irabor, regional military commander, said the strike took place on Tuesday morning at Kala Balge local government in Borno state.
"Somehow, some civilians were killed. We are yet to ascertain the number of persons killed in the air strike," Irabor told reporters in the northeastern city of Maiduguri.

"Many civilians including personnel of International Committee of the Red Cross and Medicins Sans Frontieres were wounded," he said, adding that the air force had acted on information that Boko Haram militants were in the area.

"I want to urge every woman to resist being discriminated against because of menstruation. I hope some people read wide and learn about menstrual health to stop the stereotype against young girls and women. "Yes my menses appeared 30 minutes to my performance and I had to put on a sanitary pad and still go on stage. "Menstruation is not a shame and I urge all young women take a cue from my actions and not to let it stop them from doing anything they want to do."
