Benin’s government has confirmed that 54 soldiers were killed in a jihadist attack last week near the borders with Burkina Faso and Niger, far higher than the previously reported toll of eight.

The al-Qaeda-linked group Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal Muslimeen (JNIM), based in Mali, claimed responsibility.

This marks the deadliest attack in northern Benin since insurgents began operating there, the BBC has reported.
