Airstrikes targeting terrorist groups reportedly landed on two houses housing three women and seven children on Wednesday, September 14, according to local sources.
The incident occurred in the Oudalan region in the far north of the country as part of a new anti-terrorist operation in this border province with Mali and Niger.
This operation is a response from the Burkinabé army after the attack on the Déou military detachment by armed men.
Local media said local population are often victims of the war on terror.
