International watchdog Human Rights Watch (HRW) has condemned the summary execution of an estimated 300 people, including civilians and suspected members of armed groups during a military operation conducted by Malian forces and foreign fighters.
The alleged massacre, described in a Tuesday statement by HRW as “the worst single atrocity reported in Mali’s decade-long conflict”, happened in the central Malian town of Moura during a military operation that started on March 27.
