PARIS, Jan 28 (Reuters) - France will keep fighting Islamist militants in the Sahel region, Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Friday, and repeated his view that the situation in Mali had become "untenabe" following a May 2021 coup.

European allies agreed on Friday to draw up plans within two weeks for how to continue their fight against Islamist militants in Mali.
