The site Infowakat.net reports that the bodies of four vigilantes have been found in the Sahel region of northern Burkina Faso.

Infowakat.net cites local and security sources.

The four went missing on 31 December and on Sunday residents of Kelbo village discovered the four fighters' bodies.

Terrorism continues to spread in the Sahel region. The Burkinabe armed forces have started to adapt and, for several months, have been able to inflict heavy losses on armed groups.

However, civilians continue to pay the heaviest price in this war.

On 10 December 2019, members of these armed groups murdered the head of the village of Kelbo in an ambush between Dablo and Barsalogho in the Centre-Nord region.
