FRENCH President Francois Hollande landed yesterday in the fabled Malian town of Timbuktu, making a stop six days after French forces parachuted in to liberate the desert city from al-Qaida-linked militants.
The French launched their military operation to oust the extremists three weeks ago, and have since taken back the three main northern cities ruled by the rebels for about 10 months. Hollande indicated Friday that he would discuss the reduction of French troops to make way for an African force.
