ABIDJAN - French forces in Mali "neutralized" around 10 fighters in an operation against the al Mourabitoun Islamist group, which claimed responsibility for an attack on a Radisson hotel in the capital last month, France's defense ministry said on Tuesday.

"In the course of violent combat that lasted nearly four hours, two pick-ups and around ten motorcycles were seized. Some ten terrorists were neutralized. A large quantity of arms and explosives were seized," the ministry said in a statement.
