Burkinabe Minister of Foreign Affairs Karamoko Jean-Marie Traoré denounced with "energy these terrorist acts that should not go unpunished."
"This despicable and cruel macabre signature is the translation of cowardice in its most complete form," the minister told Sputnik Africa.

Emergency and security services are responding on the scene. Russia's Investigative Committee opened a criminal case into the terrorist attack. The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) said 40 people were killed and more than 100 others were injured.
