Why is this Burkina Faso town under siege?

Burkina Faso has been in political turmoil in 2022, with two coups since the beginning of the year. But while attention has been on political manoeuvres in the capital, a crisis has been quietly building in the north of the country. The town of Djibo has become the focus of a jihadist insurgency that has been developing since 2015. People there have found their town blockaded and largely cut off from the rest of the country. When a convoy was attacked on route from the capital Ouagadougou recently, it cut off one of the only sources of food and supplies. Now more than 200,000 people are relying on air drops to keep going? But is enough support reaching them? #AfricaDaily
