Mali's election, which follows a military coup, an Islamist seizure of half the country and French military intervention, will go to a run-off, the government has announced.
No candidate gained the 50% needed for victory.
Former Prime Minister Ibrahim Boubacar Keita and ex-Finance Minister Soumaila Cisse will contest a second round on 11 August.
The election is intended to restore democracy after 22 months of unrest.
