Mali under attack: Al Qaeda rebels attack two separate locations

In a new set of attacks in Mali, an Al-Qaeda-linked group, Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin, has targeted two locations. Fighters from the group set fire to trucks loaded with food supplies that were heading towards Bamako. Fighters have also stormed a central prison, which houses Al Qaeda JNIM fighters.
