“In a rare attack in Mali’s south, suspected jihadist gunmen have attacked a Malian police base near the West African country of Ivory Coast. The attack left one Malian policeman dead and the base razed. While no group has yet to take responsibility, al Qaeda-linked groups are suspected to be the perpetrators. Most jihadist attacks occur in Mali’s north, but several attacks have taken place in the central and southern portions of the country this year.”
