Mali's humanitarian crisis spills across borders amid violence and an information war

Hundreds of thousands of Malians have been forced from their homes as fighting between the military, armed groups and Tuareg separatists deepens a humanitarian crisis that is spilling across borders. Refugees describe being caught between al-Qaeda fighters and Malian army forces that critics say have failed to protect civilians. Journalists operating in exile warn that competing narratives from all sides are burying the truth, while press freedom remains severely constrained under six years of military rule.
