Mali rebels attack triggers explosions
Rebels led by the Tuareg launched ongoing attacks on government and semi-military Russian forces in northern Mali, where the insurgents announced control over a town, and clashes continue in northern and central regions of the country. This comes after widespread attacks carried out by militants linked to al-Qaeda and the "Azawad Liberation Front" on military positions last Saturday, amid Russian support for local forces in countering an attempted coup involving 12,000 militants trained by European and Ukrainian mercenaries. The Malian army confirms that it has regained control of the situation and continues operations against the militants.
