United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has strongly condemned any attempt to seize power by force of arms in Burkina Faso and called on all actors to refrain from violence and seek dialogue.

This comes as the country’s self-declared military leader Captain Ibrahim Traore accepted a conditional resignation offered by President Paul-Henri Damiba to avoid further violence.

Damiba could not be reached for comment. A close family member told Reuters he left the country on Sunday. At least three separate videos shared on online on Saturday and Sunday showed soldiers atop armoured personnel carriers, waving Russian flags, while the crowd around chanted “Russia! Russia!”. Reuters has not verified the videos.
