Kumba school massacre

The Cameroonian government said that around 10 separatist fighters had carried out the massacre,[5] singling out "General Transporter" as the attack's leading figure.

[6] Separatists have a history of attacking schools, which some of them regarded as legitimate targets because the French language is taught as a mandatory subject.

[11] While students have been abducted and mistreated numerous times throughout the Anglophone Crisis, and several teachers have been killed, the attack on Mother Francisca International Bilingual Academy was the first school massacre to take place during the war.

The attack was condemned by United Nations Secretary General António Guterres and UNICEF Executive Director, Henrietta Fore.

[14] On October 29, Cameroon claimed that the army had identified and killed the separatist commander who was responsible for the massacre, a man known as "Wonke".
