The media regulator in Burkina Faso has banned a French television news channel for three months, accusing it of spreading false information about jihadist violence.
The high council for communication (CSC) accused the channel, LCI, of saying that jihadists were advancing rapidly and government troops were using local defence force volunteers as cannon fodder to protect themselves from the onslaught.
In April the government in Ouagadougou expelled journalists working for the French newspapers Le Monde and Liberation.
Two other broadcasters, France 24 and Radio France International, have also been suspended indefinitely.
