DAKAR, April 25 – Witnesses reported hearing two powerful explosions and gunfire early Saturday morning close to Mali’s primary military installation at Kati, located outside the capital city of Bamako, according to Reuters.
Military personnel responded to the incident by deploying troops and establishing roadblocks throughout the surrounding area, effectively cutting off access to the region where the disturbances occurred.
The sounds of combat were detected in the early morning hours near the West African nation’s most significant military facility.
