A video of the French family kidnapped in northern Cameroon last Tuesday has just been broadcast by the Boko Haram group.

For all of us, these images are terribly shocking. They show unbounded cruelty.

We are carrying out the checks necessary in these circumstances. All state services are mobilized to free our compatriots./.
