More Malian Army Massacres Yesterday


Unfortunately, the French helicopter pilot who was able to save six Tuareg men from summary execution on January 25 (see previous blog post) was not around yesterday.   The Malian army publicly executed ten Tuareg men on Friday, February 15, at Léré.  Their names are below, and have been reported to Human Rights Watch for investigation.
