Massacre in Burkina Faso: Fulani herders targeted, ethnic tensions rise amid escalating violence

In Burkina Faso’s Solenzo region, videos show the bodies of women, children, and elderly Fulani herders, hands tied, lying in blood. Earlier footage reveals government-backed militias rounding up and torturing displaced Fulani, accusing them of supporting armed groups like al-Qaeda. Human Rights Watch identified 58 victims, calling it a reprisal attack. The government denies involvement, blaming armed groups for staging the massacre. Al-Qaeda has since offered protection and revenge for the displaced. The graphic videos are fuelling ethnic tensions, deepening the conflict. Civilians remain trapped in a spiralling humanitarian crisis.
