Burkina faso eighteen people die restaurant attack

I'm so sorry to hear that. According to reports, on January 14, 2022, a terrorist attack on a restaurant in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, resulted in the deaths of at least 18 people and injured many more.

The attack occurred at around 7:30 pm local time at the Cappuccino restaurant, which is a popular spot in the city. The attackers, believed to be affiliated with the Islamic State in the Greater Sahara (ISGS), stormed the restaurant and opened fire on patrons and staff.

The Burkina Faso government has confirmed the attack and launched an investigation into the incident. The country has been facing a growing insurgency in recent years, with attacks carried out by various terrorist groups, including ISGS and the Group to Support Islam and Muslims (JNIM).

This attack is a tragic reminder of the ongoing security challenges facing Burkina Faso and the region as a whole. My thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the victims, as well as the people of Burkina Faso, who are working to rebuild and recover from this senseless act of violence.
