When Boko Haram militants attacked a village on 10 July, 200 Christian families escaped alive as they had decided to sleep in the bush because of many other recent attacks on nearby villages.

Canada: Unplanned
The Christian Institute
The CEO of Canadian cinema chain Cineplex defended his decision in July to screen the pro-life film Unplanned in the face of violent threats from abortion activists.
