On 3 May 2021, an insurgent massacre occurred in Kodyel in Burkina Faso.[1]
Background
An Islamist insurgency spread through the Maghreb during the early 21st century. Burkina Faso suffered a lot of unrest during the 2010s; several major insurgent attacks occurred in the landlocked West African country during the latter part of that decade. Attacks continued into the 2020s.[1] On 26 April 2021, two insurgent attacks occurred in the country. In the Est Region, two Spanish journalists and an Irish conservationist were killed and a Burkinabe soldier went missing when their anti-poaching patrol was ambushed.[1] In the Sahel Region, 18 people were killed in Yattakou village.[1]
Massacre
A group of insurgents attacked Kodyel, a village in Komondjari, a province in Est which borders Niger.[1] They arrived on motorcycles and pickup trucks.[1] They burned down houses and shot their residents.[1] No group have claimed responsibility for the attack.[1]
