Description
Committee members researching French archives on the 1944 Thiaroye massacre present their initial findings at a press conference in Dakar, two days before the commemoration of the killings. Rokhaya Fall, a historian, said that it had been "a mission that succeeded, if I can put it that way, insofar as we were able to obtain things that have never been seen before." Mamadou Fall, coordinator of the project, explains that for the moment they are not in a position to "give exact figures, but we have to say that the number of deaths is well above what has been announced so far."
