The Group for the Support of Islam and Muslims, GSIM or JNIM in Arabic has claimed responsibility for the attack on a supply convoy in Gaskindé, northern Burkina Faso.
In an Arabic-language statement released Tuesday by its media branch "AZ – Zallaqa," the GSIM claims to have dealt an "economic blow which caused an earthquake in the ranks of the army, which resulted in a military coup in the country".
