    Children held hostage in Cameroon

    Some 2,000 boarding school children are being used as human shields by demonstrators in Cameroon.

    Thousands of protesters went into three schools in Bamenda in the north-west to escape police pursuing them after violent demonstrations overnight.

    There have been days of protests across the country, sparked by a taxi-driver strike over a fuel price rise.
