A forgotten crisis that killed more than 6,000 people and forced more than a million Cameroonians to flee their homes. But on November 17, 2021, around 50 armed separatists crossed the border into Nigeria and attcked the Manga village at dawn. Since the start of the conflict, more than 250 villages in western Cameroon have been destroyed, terrible revenge by separatists or Cameroonian soldiers against the populations accused of supporting one of the opposing camps.
