Malian Troops Foil Suicide Bomb Attack
Malian troops shot at a suicide bomber who then blew up at a checkpoint in the northern city of Gao late on Saturday, the second attempted suicide attack on the same location in two days, a Malian military source and a witness said on Sunday. No other casualties were reported in the incident in the town, which was recaptured late last month by French and Malian troops who drove out al Qaeda-allied Islamist insurgents.
