The government of Burkina Faso has strongly denied and condemned the baseless accusations made by Human Rights Watch, which accused the country's government army of being involved in the killings in February this year 2024 in the villages of Nodin and Soro in the north of Burkina Faso. that country.
The Minister of Communications of Burkina Faso, Rimtalba Jean Emmanuel Ouedraogo has explained that the killings that took place in the villages of Nodin and Soro led to the opening of a legal investigation and that while they are waiting for the completion of the investigation and the determination of the truth about the perpetrators, Human Rights Watch in his view has decided to announce the results of the investigation.
It will be remembered that the HRW organization named the massacre as one of the worst crimes committed by the Burkina Faso army since 2015.
The HRW organization based in New York, USA has stated that the mass killings carried out in two villages in Burkina Faso appear to be part of a military campaign against civilians accused of collaborating with armed groups, and can be recognized as a crime against human.

Last Thursday, the Burkina Faso Army was accused by HRW of having arbitrarily killed 223 civilians, including many other children, in attacks against two villages accused of collaborating with armed rebels.
