At least 118 people have been killed after two car bomb attacks in the central Nigerian city of Jos.

Authorities are warning the the death toll could rise further.

The military say improvised explosive devices were hidden inside a truck and a minibus and went off within 20 minutes of each other.

The area has been the scene of long-standing ethnic and sectarian conflict for years. It has also been hit by Boko Haram militants, who have been waging an insurgency in Nigeria's northeast since 2009.
