Bouloye-Thiouly, Dori-Gorgadji axis..
JNIM reports to have repelled advances of IS-Sahel fighters this evening in the village of "Beloui Chiouli" (almost certainly wrong spelling) somewhere in the Seno region in northeast Burkina Faso today.
A few days ago IS-Sahel attacked a JNIM base in Kodiolaye, south of Dori also in the Seno region, where they reportedly killed 12 militants and captured their weapons and motorcycles.

Des éléments de l’EIGS ont mené, hier samedi 21 mars 2026, une opération de sabotage contre le pipeline Niger-Bénin dans la zone de Dankassari, dans la région de Dosso, nous ont rapporté dimanche des sources locales et sécuritaires.
Selon ces sources, les assaillants ont ciblé des installations du pipeline avant de se replier vers une position de la gendarmerie nationale, abandonnée par les éléments, dont ils ont pris le contrôle sans résistance.
