"Television programs of La Chaine Info, abbreviated LCI, are suspended for three months in the packages of all providers of paid audiovisual services from the moment of notification of this decision," CSC said in a statement published by Burkinabe broadcaster RTB.
The decision was made after LCI aired information about the alleged jihadist violence in Burkina Faso, which the authorities of the African country called "false," according to the document.
In April, the Burkinabe authorities expelled correspondents of French newspaper Liberation and the African branch of French newspaper Le Monde. In March, the authorities also barred the France 24 broadcaster from airing in the country. In December 2022, Burkina Faso suspended the airing of French broadcaster RFI.
