According to reports, gunmen arrived on motorcycles and opened fire on worshippers during a service. The attackers also set fire to the church and nearby shops.

The government has condemned the attack and has vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice. Burkina Faso has been facing a rise in violence in recent years, with attacks by Islamist militants becoming more frequent.
