Militants kill 54 in attack on Mali army post, Islamic State claims responsibility
Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack via its Amaq news agency on Saturday, without providing evidence since US special forces killed its previous leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi last weekend. The authorities first reported the attack in Indelimane, Menaka region, on Friday, but gave a lower provisional death toll.
