[Regnum] At least 31 soldiers were killed in an attack by militants in the central part of Burkina Faso, Agence France-Presse (AFP) reports, citing its sources.

In addition, the attack claimed the lives of three fighters of the auxiliary paramilitary group, the Volunteers for the Defense of the Motherland (VDP). The scene of the incident was the village of Noaka (North-Central region).

The main target of the militant attack was the VDP detachment.

Burkina Faso imposed a curfew in the regions bordering Togo, Ghana and Mali in March as part of the fight against terrorists, Regnum reported . On April 13, the country's authorities announced a general mobilization to confront the jihadists.

On April 24, in the village of Karma (Northern region of Burkina Faso), unidentified people dressed in the uniform of the national army killed about 60 people.
