Cameroonian Soldiers Repel Gunmen From CAR
Six attackers killed, one captured
Cameroon's army has repelled a cross-border raid by gunmen from the Central African Republic (CAR), killing six of the attackers and capturing one of them, the defence ministry says.
A soldier and a villager were also killed in the clashes on Saturday, it said.
The border area has been tense since rebels in the CAR ousted President Francois Bozize in March.
