Military authorities are reportedly detaining at least 11 Nigerian soldiers in Bobo-Dioulasso, located in the South West region of Burkina Faso.
They were apprehended after their aircraft carried out an emergency landing while “violating AES airspace.”
This information was confirmed by the AES in a statement posted on X by security analyst Brant Grant on Monday night.
According to the AES, a Nigerian Air Force C-130 aircraft entered Burkinabe airspace without permission and later made an emergency landing in Bobo-Dioulasso.
The statement also cautioned that any aircraft entering AES airspace without authorisation would be neutralised.
This development follows the deployment of Nigerian military aircraft to the Benin Republic on Sunday, after an attempted coup in the neighbouring nation.
