Mali
French military strikes continue
The French military used fighter planes and helicopter gunships to carry out a dozen operations over the weekend in Mali, while an extremist group threatened to launch attacks against countries taking part in the intervention. France said it had targeted "terrorist vehicles" in six of the strikes over the last 24 hours, and the campaign against the militants was making progress.
