 Al Qaeda killed more than 70 people and wounded 200 in Mali

More than 70 people were killed and 200 were injured in an attack by jihadists in Bamako, the capital of Mali, as reported by the AFP news agency.

This comes at a time when there is a delay in releasing the figures of the victims of the attack from the Malian authorities, which they say has cost the lives of many gendermerie students.

Al Qaeda-linked JNIM claimed responsibility for the attack on the military training school and the military airfield, which it said killed people and caused property damage.

Bamako, the capital of Mali, has been a safe haven for attacks, but Tuesday's attack has raised questions about the country's military and government security system.

The attack also raised the issue that the president of the military government said that they defeated those who claimed to be jihadists.

After Tuesday's attack, the Malian authorities said that a program had been developed to help the gendermerie school students and the families of the victims of the attack.

The ECOWAS group has condemned the attack by jihadists, expressing concern about how it will affect the peace and security of the entire West African region.
