A Country in Crisis: Refugee Stories—A Child is Born

by Geoff Weiss, Travel Writer and Andrea Papitto, Producer, Essakane Film(Editor's note: Two weeks ago, we began a short series of posts reporting stories of refugees who left Mali after the beginning of a Tuareg rebellion. Today, we bring a small dose of good news from one of the refugees, Mohamed Ag Amano, who told us in his own words his own refugee experience.)

The Africa.com staff would like to congratulate the Ag Ibibi Attaher family on the birth of their beautiful baby boy, Mohamed Aly. We received this message from Mohamed Ag Amano from Nouakchott. We send our best wishes to the whole family!
