While at the centre of the country, another attack was staged again in the evening which was targeted at the Hambori. Though there was no also any damage or causality that was recorded

Mali of recently has been the bane of an armed uprising that started in the northern part of the country in 2012 and spread across neighbouring countries s of Niger and Burkina Faso

Across these regions, thousands of people have died while about two million were displaced by the conflict

Despite the presence of French and United Nations cartels in these countries to curb the widespread of these conflicts, the conflict has rather spread more in Burkina Faso and Niger

France intervened in 2013 with a total number of 5,000 soldiers in this region but has made a plan to lower the number to 2,500 – 3,000 by 2023
