Longinius 1 Posted December 3, 2002 Seems French soldiers are still pulling civilians out from Touba in Africa. The information I got is sketchy at best. Has anyone found any more details around it? All I know is that there is a civil war kind of conflict going on and French soldiers are evacuating foreign civilians from the hotspots. They have gotten something like 250 people out so far. So, way to go France! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
