Gunmen kill 3 Europeans, 2 locals in Mali restaurant attack

Five people, including French and Belgian nationals, have been shot dead in a restaurant on a busy street in the Malian capital Bamako, according to The Guardian.
At least one gunman entered La Terrasse in an area popular with expatriates shortly after midnight and opened fire, according to police.
“This is a terrorist attack, although we’re waiting for clarification. Provisionally, there are four dead – one French national, a Belgian and two Malians,” a policeman told AFP on Saturday, adding that the dead included a police officer passing the scene at the time of the shooting.
A source at the Gabriel Toure hospital in Bamako said a third European, whose nationality was not immediately clear, had died on arrival while eight people were wounded.
