Malians Declare Gao Empty of Enemy Troops

Malian troops feel confident that they have regained Gao from Al Qaeda forces.

Al Qaeda launched a surprise attack upon the city, sneaking in via boats, on Saturday.

Most of the fighting occurred at the city police headquarters.

The building is now heavily damaged and may just be considered a loss.

Arrests were made, and people questioned for their parts in helping the rebels enter the city.

French forces increased their patrols, through the city, as defenses were increased to keep enemy forces from entering again.
