Benin

On January 14, 2026, the Gnémasson police station was attacked by armed individuals: heavy gunfire, station set ablaze, motorcycles burned.

As a reminder, Pendjari National Park is known to be a refuge zone for Burkinabè terrorists.

No deaths reported, but yet another warning sign for security in the north of the country.

▶️Faced with threats coming from Burkina Faso and Mali, strengthening border control is no longer an option.
