Burkina Faso: Mutiny Against Junta Leader Ibrahim Traore Over June 11 Attack? | Firstpost Africa

Burkina Faso's military leader Ibrahim Traore is reportedly facing a mutiny linked to the June 11 attack by an Al-Qaeda affiliated group, which left over 100 soldiers dead. A day after the attack, gunfire was reported near the Burkina Faso presidency and a rocket shell fell near the state broadcaster's headquarters in Ouagadougou. This triggered speculation about whether Traore was safe. Now, days after the attack Ibrahim Traore has broken his silence and is calling these reports of mutiny "fake news". Watch this video for details.
