Terror attack on French embassy and army HQ - gunmen storm buildings and explosions heard
A TERROR attack has been launched on a French embassy and army headquarters, with witnesses reporting hearing gunfire, men storming a building and a huge explosion that send plumes of smoke billowing into the sky.
People said armed men got out of a car and began opening fire in the Burkina Faso capital, Ouagadougou, this morning.
The city mayor said this afternoon the incident was a terror attack carried out by "jihadists".
France’s embassy confirmed in a statement it was under attack along with a cultural centre and the army headquarters.
In a post on Facebook, it said: "Attack under way at the French Embassy and French Institute. Stay hidden where you are.”
