At least 22 people have been killed in an attack on a village in north-west Cameroon, the UN says.

Over half those killed in Ntumbo were children, and local media report that several victims were burned alive.

No-one has claimed responsibility for Friday's incident, but an opposition party blamed the army.

Cameroon's government, which has been fighting separatists in the region for three years, denied involvement in the attack.

James Nunan, an official from the UN's humanitarian co-ordination agency Ocha, told the BBC that a pregnant woman was among those killed.
