Burkina Faso commanded in the hands of military jute

Burkina Faso is now operated by military jute. The country has a population of 23 million. The country falls in the Sahel region of Africa, which is worst affected by terrorism and violence. In 2022, the cause of the coup twice was also violence, resulting in about half of Burkina Faso out of the government’s control. Security forces have also been accused of murders out of law.

JNIM more powerful and active than before: analyst

Analyst Verb further stated that the attackers captured the area for several hours without air aid from Burkina Faso’s army. However, earlier in the attacks on Jibo, security forces had drove the extremists behind. Sahel expert Wasim Nasar at the Saufan Center Security Think Tank said that the attack on Sunday morning shows that JNIM in Burkina Faso is more powerful and active than before. He said that targeting a city like Jibo is an indication that now this organization can easily roam inside the country. Analysts have warned that military jute’s strategy, in which untrained common citizens are being admitted by making militia, have increased inter-caste tension.
