PARIS, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Three assailants are being sought
for their role in the attacks on a hotel and a cafe in Burkina
Faso's capital, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said on
Tuesday.
Speaking during a question and answer session in parliament,
Valls said six individuals opened fire on unarmed patrons at Le
Cappuccino cafe before taking refuge at the nearby Splendid
Hotel where they held several hostages.
"Of the six assailants, three were killed and three others
were being sought," Valls said adding that the attack was a
reminder of a similar attack in Paris in November.
He said the toll is at about 30 death and 30 wounded. Three
French nationals were killed.
