Ansareddine Movement spokesman: “France's interests will be targeted in all the Sahel countries”

French interests will be targeted in all the countries of the region by the “jihadi groups” in Niger, Nigeria, Mauritania, Mali, Somalia and other countries in the region and Islamic countries, Ansareddine Movement spokesman, Sinda Ould Buamama said.

“Kidnapping of foreign nationals who are working with “BP” in Algeria, was unexpected, and came as a reaction to the military operations that were led by the French aircrafts against Muslims in Mali. The movement is punishing France and targeting it whatever the way”, he added.

Ould Buamama explained on Wednesday, in a phone with Echorouk, that the French President Francois Hollande, tried through the two military operations in both Somalia and Mali, to “mislead” the French people that he is able to free the hostages, who were held by armed groups in the Sahel region, as he implemented, and through a large work of intelligence in Somalia, an operation for the liberation of a hostage, and launched on the other hand an operation in Mali, but the two operations failed “, added Sinda, who confirmed that a French soldier was killed and others were injured without recording any victim among the elements of Ansareddine”.

“An entire Muslim family was killed by a French rocket in the region, without having a relationship with any part of the conflict, in addition to targeting French aircraft of all that has to do with Islam and Muslims, especially mosques and Koranic schools. French military operations,until now, do not show a positive result, as Ansareddine movement is still controlling the city “KUNA”, at a time Paris considers the soldiers as mere numbersthat do not matter in the equation to get economic concessions in the region, under the guise of pursuing terrorists, to cope with the economic crisis”.
