🇧🇫 Why is violence increasing in Burkina Faso? l Inside Story

Burkina Faso had for years escaped much of the violence that plagued its West African neighbours Mali and Niger.
Now, armed groups are attacking any vestige of the state, and there's growing tension between ethnic groups.
The UN says the situation is deteriorating rapidly.
More than 70,000 people have been forced from their homes in just the last two months.
What's behind the surge in violence, and could it spread across West Africa?
