About 100 Malians killed in attack on Dogon village

About 100 people were killed during an overnight attack on an ethnic Dogon village in central Mali, a local mayor told Reuters on Monday.

Fighting between Dogon hunters and Fulani herders has killed hundreds since January, including an attack on a village in March in which over 150 Fulanis were killed by gunmen, one of the worst acts of violence in the West African country's recent history.
