布基納法索安全部隊結束對聖戰者嫌疑人的行動
Burkina Faso's security forces have ended their operation against gunmen who opened fire Sunday on a restaurant in the country's capital, killing at least 18 people and wounding eight.
Two of the suspected jihadists were killed in the shootout with the forces. It was not immediately clear how many assailants were involved in the raid.
Some people were able to escape the restaurant when the attackers opened fire, but others were trapped inside the building.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the violence.
