THE FRENCH AIRFORCE INTENSIFIED AIRSTRIKES ON INTENDED TARGETS IN THE DISPUTED NORTHERN REGION OF MALI AND THE REBEL'S OCCUPIED TOWN OF DIABALI.

      The French Airforce intensified airstrikes on intended targets in the disputed Northern region of Mali and the Rebel's occupied town of Diabali after the United Nations (UN) approval of the French government mandate for military intervention with alternative use of military force as the resolution to the current conflict in the French former colony and West African country of Mali. Tens of thousands of citizens have been displaced and forced to live under the worsening humanitarian crisis condition in Diabali, the capital Timbuktu, various other towns and villages after the French Airforce encountered unexpected resistance against the Ansar Al Din Rebels. Additional two thousand and fifty French military men have been deployed to reinforce the five hundred and fifty French Airforce and Infantry personnel on the operation against the Ansar Al Din Rebels that has been expected to last for only few weeks. The extend of casualties inflicted on both sides in regard to the human lives that may have been lost and property damage in the last fourty eight hours have not been disclosed.
