At least 15 dead in Burkina Faso church attack

At least 15 people have been killed in an attack on a church in northern Burkina Faso, according to local officials.

The attack took place on Sunday morning in the town of Toulfe, located in the Sahel region near the border with Mali. Gunmen stormed the church during a service and opened fire on worshippers, killing at least 15 people and wounding several others.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack, but Burkina Faso has been plagued by jihadist violence in recent years, with various armed groups carrying out attacks on civilians and security forces.

The government of Burkina Faso has condemned the attack and promised to increase security measures in the region to prevent further violence.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families during this difficult time.
