Are you OK ?
In the meantime-
Cameroon says a German citizen kidnapped six months ago by the Nigerian Islamist group Boko Haram has been released. The nighttime operation involved "security services of friendly countries."
Cameroon national television quoted President Paul Biya on Wednesday as saying that the German was "released" during a special operation staged by Cameroon's army and friendly security services.
President Biya did not give details on the operation, nor on the circumstances in which the German was abducted.
In Berlin German Foreign Office spokesman Martin Schäfer said the freed hostage had been taken to Yaounde, Cameroon's capital.
Briefly interviewed by DW correspondent Moki Kindzeka, the man said the release took place in "total darkness" and involved a trek through forest.
"I thought, right up to the last minute, they'll bump me off," said the ex-hostage who has not been officially identified.
