Monday, February 26, 2024 – An attack on a mosque in eastern Burkina Faso has killed dozens of people, local and security sources told AFP on Monday, Feb. 26.
“Armed individuals attacked a mosque in Natiaboani on Sunday
(Feb, 25) around 5:00 am, resulting in several dozen being killed,” a security
source said.
“The victims were all Muslims, most of them men” who had
come for the morning prayer, a local resident said.
It happened on the same day as at least 15 civilians were
killed in an attack on a Catholic church during Sunday mass in the north of the
country.
The assailants targeted the village of Essakane, leaving 12
individuals dead on-site, while three others succumbed to injuries during
medical treatment. Additionally, two people sustained injuries in the assault.
