At least 14 children were among 22 people killed by armed men in the English-speaking region of Cameroon, a UN official said.
The UN's James Nunan said the attack happened in Ntumbo, a village in northwestern Cameroon on Friday.
Details of the violence emerged Sunday. Nunan told CNN that an unspecified number of residents were injured, including a pregnant woman. He added that at least 600 villagers have since fled the area
