32 people killed in Boko Haram blast

Attack breaks a 3-week hiatus since Oct 23 bombings, which claimed 42

A nighttime suicide bombing blamed on Boko Haram extremists killed 32 people and wounded 80 on Tuesday at a truck stop in northeastern Nigeria, an emergency official said.

Tuesday night's blast breaks a three-week hiatus in bombings after a string of suicide attacks culminated in twin explosions in mosques in two northeastern cities that killed 42 people and wounded more than 100 on Oct 23.
