PARIS (Reuters) – Two French soldiers were killed in an operation to rescue four hostages in the Sahel region of Africa, France said on Friday, adding that the hostages, including a U.S. woman, a South Korean citizen and two Frenchmen, were now safe.
Two French tourists were kidnapped during a safari in Benin last week, and their local guide found dead.
