🇧🇫 Burkina Faso's president cancels China trip to prioritize national security
Ibrahim Traore has reportedly made such a decision to address national security concerns following the recent attack on Barsalogho. He will not be attending the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation that was set to take place from September 4-6 in Beijing.
According to reports, the attack on Barsalogho, a town in Burkina Faso's Center-North region, on August 24 led to the deaths of up to 200 civilians and security personnel. This incident is part of the ongoing conflict in Burkina Faso, where armed groups linked to al-Qaeda* and Daesh* have increasingly targeted rural areas, leading to widespread violence and displacement.
