Bamako: The al-Qaida -linked Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin militant group released videos of dozens of Malian soldiers it said were captured in combat and claimed that more than 100 others were killed in the attack earlier this month on an army camp in central Mali.
The Associated Press could not immediately verify the numbers and the spokesperson for the Malian army, Col.-Maj. Bakary Bocar Maiga, declined to comment. If true, it would make the Sept. 10 attack one of the deadliest in the group's history.
