Unimaginable but true, in many countries.

Right now the focus is on what Boko Haram is doing. Their increasingly violent and ever
more vicious abuse of children as weapons of war -- as victims, as slaves and as
suicide bombers -- must be addressed, because the threat is only likely to grow, says Gordon Brown.

Girls as young as 10 ​are being lined up as suicide bombers to further Boko Haram's
cause.
