At least 25 people have died in a recent wave of violence between the Peul and Dogon communities in central Mali over the past week, said Tuesday an official of the country\u2019s main Fulani association.<\/p>\n

For over two years, there has been an upsurge in violence in central Mali between Fulani, traditionally breeders, and the Bambara and Dogon ethnic groups, mainly engaged in agriculture.<\/p>\n

The violence between nomads of Fulani descent and farmers of Dogon descent was sparked by Fulanis grazing their cattle in Dogon-majority areas.<\/p>\n

Dogons also accuse Fulanis in the area of colluding with cleric Amadou Koufa, whose Islamist group recently joined the Group to Support Islam and Muslims, a jihadist alliance with links to al-Qaeda.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cOver the last eight days 25 Fulani have been killed by Dogon hunters\u00a0armed with weapons only found among the ranks of the regular army,\u201d said Abdoul Aziz Diallo, president of the Tabital Pulaaku community group which represents Mali\u2019s Fulani community,<\/p>\n

There was no official toll from the authorities in Bamako, but an elected official in central Mali spoke of \u201cdozens killed on one side or the other\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Malian government and the regional governor have denied providing arms to the opposing groups.<\/p>\n

Mali\u2019s security minister Salif Traor\u00e9 on Tuesday described the situation as \u201cvery complex\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the security forces go into the area the armed men hide their weapons, and when the forces leave again these people bring their weapons back out,\u201d he told a press conference.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
