REPORT: Lebanese families mourn Air Algerie victims in Burkina Faso

Scenes of grief filled the Marina market in Burkina Faso following the death of its owner, a Lebanese national identified as Fadi Restom.

Restom was among the 19 Lebanese nationals who were victims of the Air Algerie flight that crashed in the West African country of Mali earlier this week.

Also in Burkina Faso, a Lebanese family expressed its deep sorrow and grief over the death of their relative, Omar Ballan.

The families of the victims headed to the Ouagadougou airport where officials pledged to remain in touch over the identification of the victims’ bodies.
