Initial reports say soldiers attacked paratroopers' camp in western Bamako after they refused an assignment to the front-line of the French-led offensive against Islamist militants in the north. The paratroopers, known as the Red Berets, were loyal to former president Amadou Toumani Toure, who was ousted in a military coup last March. In the north, military officials say a suicide bomber blew himself up near a group of soldiers, the first time that tactic has been used in Mali since the offensive began last month. Human Rights Watch is urging Kenya to crack down on rights abuses and enact promised political reforms ahead of its national elections in March. 马里首都今天发生一场枪战，作战双方是该国士兵以及已叛变的伞兵部队精英。初期报道透露，在他们拒绝由法国人指导对抗北部伊斯兰激进分子的作战分配任务后，士兵袭击了伞兵部队在巴马科西部的营地，绰号为红色贝雷帽的伞兵部队忠于前总统阿马杜?托马里?图雷，后者在早前三月的一次军事政变中被驱逐。 在北部，军方官员称一枚人体炸弹在一群士兵附近进行引爆，这是自从上月战事爆发以来马里第一起人体炸弹战略。 人权观察组织敦促肯尼亚在三月举行全国大选前打击权力滥用并颁布应允的政治改革措施。
