Four people were killed in an attack on a Catholic church in northern Burkina Faso as they attended Mass on Sunday. Eight heavily armed men arrived in the village aboard four motorcycles and entered the church and opened fire. The attack follows a similar one in another Burkina Faso town on May 12 during which gunmen killed a priest and five worshipers.
