Terrorism in Burkina Faso has been spreading rapidly since 2015,
in the wake of the defenestration of Blaise Compaore, who had ruled the country for 27 years from 1987 to 2014. He was ousted because the country had descended into dire socio-political destabilization similar to what happened in the “Arab Spring” of 2011.
From 1990 until 2014, only three terrorist attacks were recorded in the country by the Global Terrorism Database whereas in 2015 alone, the country faced at least seven terrorist attacks.
In 2019, violence
spread from Burkina Faso's north, bordering Mali - where a large proportion of the terrorists come from - to the east of the country.
At present, security issues in Burkina Faso have become so febrile that the government is unable to control approximately 40 percent of the country's territory, according to ECOWAS mediator.
