Burkina Faso's transitional Government has undergone a partial reshuffle, with four ministers including those in charge of Security and Justice departing. Lieutenant-Colonel Boukaré Zoungrana has been replaced by Emile Zerbo as the Minister in charge of Territorial Administration, Decentralization and Security. Key positions in the transitional government formed in October 2022 by President and Captain Ibrahim Traoré, who came to power by a putsch in September, remain unchanged. Burkina Faso is currently dealing with ongoing jihadist violence, which has killed more than 10,000 civilians and soldiers and displaced over two million people.
