Gunmen have taken over a US owned hotel in Mali with 170 hotels popular with Western and Chinese expatiates.
Approximately at least 10 gunmen. Shots fired.

Back in 2013, French forces liberated Mali from Islamic terrorists before handing over security to other African nations and later a UN organised force.

Quick question, why exactly would an American want to go to Mali?
>>27936740
Quick, someone wake up Kenya and Nigeria, things are getting fucky in Africa on their watch again.

The "official" logo of /k/ has a man with a nugget running into the woods as a helicopter and explosions surround him.
Note, there is a MAN with the nugget. The concept of warfare and the use of military tactics and the use of military gear to acheive military objectives is very much centric to /k/
Bow this thread will inevitably devolve into people calling black people idiots and calling for a renewed colonial expansion of France because "mah Rhodesia", but simply bringing up a new situation which will require SWAT and military tactics to solve isn't in itself political.

From the BBC, they say the UN are sending reinforcements.
The most capable in country are French and Dutch troops.

If those hostages would have had assault weapons this would have never happened.
>Explosions being reported at the Mall of America.
Shit.

Read about Operation Serval. You obviously missed the threads.

Seems Mali special forces have already started the assault and have been sweeping floor by floor the Hotel. As of now 80-100 hostages freed.
Tanks in 30 minutes

<The gunmen stormed the US-owned hotel, which is popular with foreign businesses and airline crews, shooting and shouting "God is great!" in Arabic.
>shooting and shouting "God is great!" in Arabic
