MEMBERS of the international forces that fought in Mali march down the Champs-Elysees avenue in Paris during the Bastille Day parade yesterday. Troops from 13 African countries that took part in the French-led war against al-Qaida-linked extremists in Mali marched with the French military during the parade to honor their role in the conflict. France's annual tribute to military might, the parade marks the storming of the Bastille prison on July 14, 1789, by angry Paris crowds that triggered the French Revolution. - AFP
