At least nine people were killed and more than 60 injured in a triple suicide attack in the Malian city of Savar today, a spokesman for the local governor said.
“The explosion destroyed about 20 houses in the neighborhood. A total of nine dead and about 60 injured, all civilians,” a spokesman for the local governor told Reuters by telephone.
Earlier, Mali’s public television aired a government statement saying the army had prevented a “terrorist attack” in Savar. “As a result of an unmanned military aircraft strike, three vehicles with explosives were destroyed,” the statement said.
So far, no organization has claimed responsibility for the attack.
