 Burkina Faso approves free education, transport, healthcare for families of martyrs


Burkina Faso says it is launching free public transport and healthcare services to support family members of those who have died or been injured while defending the nation.


This comes after the Sahel nation formally recognised 315 people as national martyrs and 10 others as Invalides de la Nation (Disabled of the Nation)


The measures were approved during a cabinet meeting chaired by President Ibrahim Traoré under legislation governing the status of national martyrs and injured veterans.
