A suicide bomb attack on a church in the central Nigerian city of Jos has killed at least 10 people. It's the second such attack in Jos in two weeks. Here's Mark Lobel.

Eyewitnesses said the suicide bombers refused to open the

boot

of their car when challenged at church gates before detonating the explosives as worshippers approached them. It took place in St Finbar's Catholic Church in the affluent Rayfield suburb of Jos, a town in which thousands have died from religious and ethnic violence over the past decade. Security forces denied allegations of opening fire on

onlookers

who gathered after the blast. No groups admitted responsibility for the attack although suspicion will fall on the militant Islamist group Boko Haram, who were behind a similar church attack in Jos two weeks ago, in which three people were killed.

An Egyptian military court has

acquitted

an army doctor who was charged with carrying out forced

virginity

tests on women detained during protests last year. One of the women, Samira Ibrahim, who pressed charges against the doctor, said she'd been forced to undergo a test in March after being arrested in Tahrir Square. She said that witnesses she believed would testify for her had changed their story.
