Violence in Burkina Faso has resulted in over 70 deaths, including children, this month. The country has been dealing with a jihadist insurgency since 2015, leading to the deaths of thousands and the displacement of millions. A recent attack in the town of Zaongo resulted in numerous deaths, mostly elderly people and children. The European Union and the US government have condemned the violence, and authorities are conducting investigations to determine responsibility. The transitional government in Burkina Faso has urged caution in drawing conclusions.
