#Mali : la #Russie, alliée incertaine d’une junte menacée par l’offensive djihadiste
Après la prise de #Kidal par les rebelles du Front de libération de l’Azawad, dimanche, au moins 400 paramilitaires d’ #AfricaCorps, nouveau groupe russe au Mali après la dissolution de Wagner, ont été évacués sous escorte de la ville.

When the #RussianAfricaCorps replaced #WagnerPMC 6 months ago, weary civilians hoped for less brutality. The #UnitedNations says they have been abused by all sides in the conflict.

But refugees described a new reign of #terror by #AfricaCorps in the vast & largely lawless territory, & legal analysts said #Moscow is directly responsible.

“As they have in other African countries, the Russian mercenaries quickly established a reputation for massacring innocent civilians alongside the Malian army, and jihadist activity expanded at an even quicker pace.”

"#Wagner temporarily helped push back militants in some areas but civilian casualties surged, increasing fourfold in the year after Wagner’s arrival in 2021”, according to @ACLED data.

@philipobaji.bsky.social

In the Bunker with @darthputinkgb.bsky.social, I explained how Russian paramilitaries commit grave human rights abuses, including rape and torture, in Africa and how local recruits, known as Black Russians, operate alongside Wagner paramilitaries in Central Africa.

( ed : accurate assessment of #wagnerpmc #africacorps )

Now is probably a good time for my US comrades to learn about what #Wagner is doing in Africa (renamed as #AfricaCorps but really #AfrikaKorps). #Academi (formerly #Blackwater) will be deployed to support ICE to suppress protests, like they probably were in Portland at the end of Trump's first term.

But don't rule out Putin sending in Wagner to support Trump if things get wild during this term, perhaps to violently suppress the next anti-police uprising.

This is less of a "I think this is likely" and more of a "well, anything can happen" type of thing. It never hurts to know more about the world.

#uspol

The #UK government today sanctioned - among others - three private mercenary groups with links to the #Kremlin, including #AfricaCorps, #Bears and #COSI.

“These sanctions will bear down on Russian malign activity in #Libya, #Mali, and #CAR, exposing and combatting #Russia’s illicit activity in #Africa, as it attempts to exploit the fragile security environments and natural resources in these countries for its gain and expand the Kremlin’s sphere of influence.”

Good morning, #CatsOfMastodon
What are you up to this #Caturday morning? The boss lady is floored, having listened to our latest #TheGlobalJigsaw on the #Sahel - a heady mix of #Niger #Burkina #Mali and #Chad - #Africa 's security firewall. Some more #Wagner legacy groups, incl #Russia def min's #AfricaCorps (and ties to #GRU ), US withdrawal, jihadists, #uranium and #Iran plus a certain Knight of the order of the Stallion... intrigued? You could give it a go here https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct6r7h

Location data from messaging app #Telegram has revealed activity at the base of the #AfricaCorps, a paramilitary formation with links to the Russian Ministry of Defense. #OSINT

#Russia chooses sides in #Sudan

Despite Ukrainian claims, Russia has long remained a pragmatic – rather than "neutral" – actor in Sudan, including during the current civil war. Both Hemedti and Burhan had been careful to keep warm ties with Moscow since 2019, and both have been in business with the former #Wagner PMC (including during the war). A recent independent report pointed to the complicity of Russia/Wagner in the #genocide of the #Masalit by the #RSF in #Darfur.

#Ukraine #AfricaCorps

so, you tell me...
#russia​s #wagner operations in #africa are rebranding themselves to (rechecks their notes again), #africacorps ?!
