Thousands of people who fled the Gambia return after Jammeh's resignation

Thousands of Gambians who in the past weeks fled to neighboring Senegal due to a post-electoral political crisis have begun returning to the country in droves, local media reported on Monday.

Their return was prompted by the resignation on Saturday of President Yahya Jammeh, who ruled with an iron fist over the tiny West African nation for 22 years.
