Human Rights Watch warned that the armed conflict in West Africa's Burkina Faso has forced 350,000 children out of school.

The international rights agency's report said armed groups are targeting institutions to destroy any form of secular education.

The agency further stated that children beg for food or work, and many young girls are forced into early marriages.
