Thus far, no group has officially claimed responsibility for the act, although Boko Haram is widely believed to be responsible.

By the time Malian and U.N. security forces rushed in and ended the siege hours later, bodies were scattered across the floors of the Radisson Blu Hotel in Bamako.
At least 22 people were killed in the attack, the U.N. mission in Mali said in a statement Sunday.
Two attackers died, but it's unclear whether security forces killed them or whether they blew themselves up, mission spokesman Olivier Salgado said.

Employee: They shot at everyone

Couye was at the restaurant when attackers barged in.
"They started firing at the tables," he said. "They walked through the hotel door and started to shoot at everybody. Then they returned to the restaurant and closed its doors."
He hurriedly evacuated employees through an exit door as chaos erupted.
"One of the attackers was yelling 'Allahu akbar!' " he said.
"These people started shooting. They were shooting at everybody without asking a single question. They were shooting at anything that moved."
The United Nations said two or three gunmen attacked the hotel.
