DEFENSE
The Paga Youth Movement has raised security alarms over a mysterious US aircraft, tail number 60171, which has made multiple landings at the Paga airstrip, prompting local anxiety as it took off when approached. Despite attempts by district security agencies to intercept the aircraft, it was designated a 'national security aircraft' by the Regional Police High Command, leading the youth group to suspect it may be linked to the US Army and potentially carrying arms to Burkina Faso. They are calling for clarification from national authorities to address community concerns about the aircraft's identity and mission.
