Dakar, Senegal: Islamist armed groups and Malian soldiers killed at least 175 civilians, many of them children, between April and September in Mali, Human Rights Watch (HRW) has said, condemning the targeted killing of civilians as war crimes.

The Al-Qaeda-linked Support Group for Islam and Muslims (GSIM) was responsible for the deaths of at least 135 civilians in two attacks, the human rights organization said in a report seen by Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Thursday.
