Mali’s leader addresses deadly fuel crisis amid jihadi blockade
General Assimi Goita, the head of Mali's military junta, spoke for the first time on Monday about the country's fuel crisis.
The crisis stems from a jihadi group's blockade of fuel tankers entering the landlocked West African nation.
"During the escort of the fuel tanker convoy, people are dying; there are ambushes on the roads and tankers are catching fire with people inside them, who are burning to death," said Goita.
