In Mali, 80 militants involved in attacks on army positions killed
The Malian armed forces have killed at least 80 militants who participated in attacks on government positions in various parts of the country. This was announced by Malian army spokesman Souleymane Dembele, according to TASS.
The General Staff of the Malian Armed Forces reported that the authorities have full control of the situation throughout the country.
Armed groups have seized several military facilities in Mali.
On the morning of April 25, militant groups attacked military positions in the suburbs of the capital Bamako, in the northern cities of Gao and Kidal, and in the city of Sévaré in central Mali. According to Reuters, this coordinated militant attack was the largest in Mali in recent years. The militants used heavy weapons, drones, and car bombs, according to Malian security forces.
"Terrorist groups attempted to carry out attacks in several cities across the country, but suffered serious setbacks as a result of government forces' retaliatory actions," the statement reads. "The attackers have been eliminated, large-scale operations are underway to secure the affected areas, and a search for terrorist elements is underway," the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Republic stated.
