Mali rally

A man rests between two bars at a stadium, where a rally was being held against the seizure of northern Mali by Tuareg and Islamist rebels, in the capital Bamako. Since a military coup in Mali last month, nearly 80 percent of Malian territory comprising the northern regions of Gao, Timbuktu and Kidal have come under the control of MNLA Tuareg rebels, who have declared an independent state in the north, and other armed Islamic groups.
