About 800 Burkinabes are seeking refuge in seven communities in the Sissala West district of Upper West region.
The development comes after some unknown persons attacked their community in neighboring Burkina Faso.
It is unknown what might have sparked the attacks on the Burkinabes.
However, information available to GHOne TV has it that the District Security Committee is leading a team from the National Security Ministry to the host communities to get first-hand information on the incident.
