As a new round of French military strikes targeted Islamist rebels in Mali on Sunday, both sides of the fight said they were determined to win.
French fighter jets bombed rebel training camps and other targets in northern Mali, France’s Defense Ministry said in a statement.
“France’s goal is to lead a relentless struggle against terrorist groups,” the ministry said, “preventing any new offensive of these groups to the south of Mali.”
