RawNews1st – Tear gas and gunfire at the French embassy, about 45 minutes ago.
Protesters target France’s embassy and march in Ouagadougou carrying the Russian flag, believing Moscow can help the Burkinabe army defeat armed groups.
The comments came on Sunday after security forces fired tear gas at dozens of rock-throwing protesters outside France’s embassy in Burkina Faso’s capital, as unrest simmers in the West African nation following its second coup this year.
Supporters of the coup leader gathered outside the building in Ouagadougou a day after he accused the deposed military chief Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba of hiding out at a French base to plot a “counteroffensive”.
