Diabaly Liberated by Malian and French Troops

Malian troops retook the strategic town of Diabaly, on Sunday.

The people of Diabaly came out to cheer on their own and French troops as they drove through town.

It had lain in the hands of Al Qaeda backed rebels, since last Monday.

French ground and air power backed the Malian military, in the retaking of the town, and all along the front lines.

Some see this as a sign that the war has now taking a definitive turning point.

However Al Qaeda is promising to make France regret their interference, and may begin sending fighters from other countries, to aid their fight in Mali.
