French Special Forces have rescued four foreign hostages from a militant group in Burkina Faso. Two soldiers were killed in the overnight raid in the West African country, which resulted in the rescue of two Frenchmen, a South Korean woman and an American. France has about 4 and a half thousand troops in the region. It's leading an effort aimed at fighting jihadist insurgents, which is considered a relative success so far, but at a cost: 24 French soldiers have died since 2013.
