Burkina Faso's Ex-President Arrested Over Traore Assassination Plot | Firstpost Africa | N18G 

Описание: A power struggle in West Africa intensifies as an assassination plot against Burkina Faso's leader, Ibrahim Traoré, unfolds. Former president Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba, accused of masterminding the attack, was arrested in Togo and reportedly sent back to Burkina Faso. The plan aimed to assassinate Traoré, eliminate senior junta leaders, and disable a key drone base, originating from abroad, but was thwarted before execution. A senior air force officer confessed to involvement, allegedly receiving funds for the coup, with some financing traced back to Ivory Coast, which denies involvement.  Arrests continue as Burkina Faso claims the threat is neutralised, yet risks linger.
