A jihadist attack on a top Burkina Faso hotel was carried out by six gunmen, three of whom are still on the run, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said Tuesday, according to AFP.
"Six individuals opened fire on the Cappuccino cafe before taking refuge in the Splendid hotel" in Friday's attack in the capital Ouagadougou, Valls told parliament. "Three were killed and three are still being sought," he said.
Burkina Faso had not made public the number of assailants in the attack that left 30 people dead, many of them foreigners.
