🇧🇫#BurkinaFaso: Footage shows the Burkina Faso Armed Forces carrying out multiple drone strikes against JNIM militants as they withdrew from the northern town of Titao. The jihadists had earlier attacked a military camp and destroyed telephone facilities and shops on February 14th. Over the past week, JNIM fighters have killed dozens of soldiers and civilians and overrun at least one army position in coordinated attacks across multiple regions. What stands out over these recent attacks is that lately, the group seems to able to mobilize its militants across large parts of territory and conduct raids simultaneously: military camps and civilian settlements in Bilanga, Titao, Tandjari, and Nare were attacked at the same time. In Titao specifically, reports indicate that around 80 soldiers and pro-government militia troops were killed during the fighting. (📹 via @fabsenbln on X)
