People are standing with the victims and families in the northeastern Nigerian city of Yola after two suicide bombs claimed 32 lives and injured 80 people.

Both explosions struck a market in the Nigerian city of Yola on Tuesday, they are believed to be coordinated by the militant group Boko Haram. One of the suicide bombers was an 11-year-old girl, CNN reports.

The militants have reportedly killed more than 2,000 Nigerians this year. They have struck Chad, Niger and Cameroon in recent weeks and have not killed in Nigeria since October, Reuters reports.
