| The world through its media | |
| Burkina | |
| Faso’s media regulator has imposed a two-week suspension on the programmes of | |
| BBC Afrique and Voice of America (VOA) for airing a Human Rights Watch report accusing the Burkinabè army of abuses against civilians. | |
| Access to the websites and digital platforms of BBC, VOA, and Human Rights Watch is also suspended within Burkina Faso. | |
| “Accordingly, the BBC and VOA, through their correspondents in Burkina Faso, were instructed by telephone to immediately stop rebroadcasting the offending programme on all their platforms," state-owned news agency Agence d’Information du Burkina (AIB) reported | |
| on Thursday. | |
| The Superior Council for Communication (CSC) further warned all local media outlets against disseminating the article, | |
| threatening sanctions against violators of the directive. | |
| VOA said in an article published on Friday that it "stands by its reporting about Burkina Faso and | |
| intends to continue to fully and fairly cover activities in the country". | |
| HRW published a report on Thursday accusing the | |
| Burkina Faso military of executing at least 223 civilians on 25 February in the | |
| north of the country. | |
| In | |
| December 2023, the West African nation suspended French daily Le Monde accusing it of biased | |
| reporting. | |
| It also suspended three other international media outlets at varying times last year, including French-language magazine Jeune Afrique, French TV channel channel La Chaîne Info (LCI) and French state-owned media organisation France24. | |
