Nigerian army 'destroys' Boko Haram camps in north-east

The Nigerian army says it has destroyed a number of well-equipped camps used by the militant Islamist group, Boko Haram, in the north-east of Nigeria.

Senior officer Chris Olukolade said the camps were used to co-ordinate attacks on nearby local communities. The BBC has not been able to independently verify the army's claim.
