Thousands of Africans across the continent rallied today under the unified call of "Hands Off the AES!" to express their solidarity with Burkina Faso and its revolutionary leader, Captain Ibrahim Traoré. Demonstrations were held in Burkina Faso, Ghana, and Liberia, led by grassroots organizations and people's movements. Protesters strongly condemned foreign interference and affirmed their support for the country's resistance against imperialist destabilization.
Solidarity grows amid coup attempt
This continental wave of solidarity follows recent revelations by Burkina Faso's military authorities that they had foiled a major coup attempt on April 21. The government described the plot as an effort to "sow total chaos" and reverse the country's sovereign and revolutionary path under Traoré's leadership.
