Attacks in Mali: Global Star Youssou Ndour Exfiltrated from Bamako on Special Flight to Dakar

Youssou Ndour, the Senegalese music legend, was exfiltrated from Bamako by military authorities after his concert 'Bal des Grands' was interrupted due to security events. A direct flight to Dakar was organized from the international Senou airport, which reopened to allow his departure. The concert, intended to mark his return to Bamako, was halted due to a 72-hour curfew.
