Mali: 1 soldier and 4 terrorists killed in attack on Malian army post
One soldier and four terrorists were killed in the attack on an army post in Acharane (Timbuktu region) in northern Mali, the Malian Armed Forces (FAMa) said Sunday on their official website.
The Malian army also deplored three wounded in its ranks and recovered from the assailants “several individual and collective weapons”.
“The FAMa have just reacted vigorously this Sunday morning, around 6:30 a.m. to an attack on the Acharane post in the Timbuktu region. The provisional toll is one dead and three wounded in the ranks of FAMa. Four dead were abandoned on the ground by the enemy,” the FAMa said.
On Oct. 6, a complex attack targeting a convoy of the Malian army on the Koro-Bandiagara axis in the center of the country caused 16 deaths and wounded 9 soldiers in the FAMa who killed 15 terrorists and seized 20 motorcycles.
