The Tuaregs then attacked and killed the survivors.

Summary:

Hyoscyamus muticus, also known as Egyptian henbane, is a shrub in the Solanaceae family that is native to desert regions in North Africa. It is used in traditional medicine and contains alkaloids that have pharmaceutical uses. It can be found in countries such as Egypt, Pakistan, and India and has been successfully cultivated for its medicinal properties. The plant has long stems with broad lower leaves and narrower upper leaves. Its flowers are white or green with deep purple-violet upper lips. The plant is known for its high levels of scopolamine, which is used to treat motion sickness and has other medical effects. However, in high doses, it can be toxic and even fatal. The plant has a history of being used as a recreational drug and has been used as a poison in the past. It was even used to poison the survivors of the Flatters Expedition in 1881.
