Militias linked to Burkina Faso's military junta are allegedly behind a massacre in western Burkina Faso. Human Rights Watch reported videos of 58 victims, mostly ethnic Fulani, as the government remains inaccessible for comment.

Based on video analysis, media reports, and local sources, most victims of the massacre in Solenzo appear to be ethnic Fulani, the Human Rights Watch said Friday. At least 58 people appear to be dead or dying in the videos, including at least two children, it said.

Militias allied with Burkina Faso's military junta have been linked to a "gruesome" massacre in a western city that left dozens dead this week, Human Rights Watch said.
