Monday’s attack took place in Arbinda, in the province of Soum, which has suffered several deadly raids by Islamist militants linked to al Qaeda and Islamic State that for years have sought to gain control over a swathe of arid terrain where Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger meet.
In separate incidents in northern Burkina Faso, at least 15 people, including 13 military police officers, were killed in Namentenga province on Sunday, the military police said, and on Saturday, nine people were killed in an assault on an informal gold mine in the province of Oudalan, a security source said.
