Terrorists from the Islamic group Boko Haram have attacked an air base in north-eastern Nigeria. Authorities have released little detail about the attack and have not said if there were any casualties. A military spokesman only said that security forces had repelled attacks by "daring terrorists". The Nigerian government has since imposed an 24-hour curfew in the area, near Maiduguri. In May, President Goodluck Jonathan declared a state of emergency in Borno state, of which Maiduguri is the capital, and two neighbouring states that are also targeted by Boko Haram. He also declared an all-out offensive against the group, who are fighting to establish an Islamic state in Nigeria. Thousands of people have died since Boko Haram's insurgency began in 2009. Report by Sarah Johnston.
