Burkina Faso imechukua hatua kali za kiusalama baada ya matukio ya vurugu nchini Mali,
Nchi ya Burkina Faso imeweka hali ya tahadhari ya juu kufuatia mashambulizi yaliyotokea hivi karibuni katika Mali.
Kwa mujibu wa serikali, hatua hizo ni sehemu ya mkakati wa kuzuia kuingia kwa makundi yenye silaha kupitia mipaka ya nchi hiyo. Vikosi vya usalama vimeongezwa katika maeneo ya mpakani pamoja na miji mikubwa.
Wananchi wamehimizwa kushirikiana na vyombo vya usalama kwa kutoa taarifa mapema ili kusaidia kudhibiti hatari yoyote inayoweza kujitokeza.
Wataalamu wanasema kuwa ushirikiano wa kikanda ni muhimu katika kukabiliana na changamoto hizi, kwani makundi yenye silaha mara nyingi huvuka mipaka bila kizuizi kikubwa,hatua hiyo inaonyesha jinsi nchi za Sahel zinavyoendelea kukabiliana na changamoto za usalama zinazoendelea kuongezeka.
