Speaking with FRANCE 24's Mark Owen, Michael Shurkin, Director of Global Programmes at 14 North Strategies, says that Mali faces a very high risk of a new coup d'état, adding that the jihadist group JNIM and the Tuareg rebels of the FLA "clearly have the initiative and the Malian government is on the backfoot".

Speaking with FRANCE 24's Sharon Gaffney, Dr Nathaniel Powell, West Africa Analyst at Oxford Analytica and Research Associate at Lancaster University's Centre for War and Diplomacy, explains that the jihadist group operating in Mali, JNIM, "does not appear to have the capability to seize and hold an urban area for any length of time, so Bamako is not yet under threat of being captured, but the long term prospects certainly do not look good".

Two days of national mourning have been declared in Mali after the country's defence minister was killed in an attack by Al-Qaeda linked group JNIM, who have allied with Tuareg rebels. Despite their disagreements, the two sides joined forces to fight against the Malian army, which is supported by Russian mercenaries.

- Meanwhile #Iran continues to make headway, not only in the #Sahel, but in #Sudan (where it supports the #SAF in the current civil #war) and #SouthAfrica. #Somaliland s neighbour #Djibouti had reestablished relations with Iran in 2023, days before the #Hamas raid.

- Despite #US threats of #war, massive uprising at home and #Israel taking a keener interest in the continent, #Africa is set to remain a major strategic priority for Iran.

Turning our backs, briefly, on the Epstein crisis:

Seems that the Islamic State’s #Sahel Province (#ISSP) commando, responsible for the attack in in #Niamey a few days ago, was mainly aiming to destroy the country's military #drones, as those hinder their movemements significantly.

“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.

"By sidelining Paris in the #Sahel, #Wagner appears poised to accomplish for security what Chinese construction and mining companies tentatively began on the economic front in the late 1990s. Through its example, states are rediscovering the classic model of the private militia – a model active in the Global South since at least the sovereign debt crises of the 1980s..." - #MartinBarnay

V BBCMonitoring & @beverly_ochieng :
#JNIM have claimed killing "300 militia members" in an attack in #Barsalogho, #BurkinaFaso.

It seems the deadliest attack in #Burkina Faso - many were killed digging trenches for security forces - it is about #VDPs - you can find out more about the latest security challenges in the #Sahel on #TheGlobalJigsaw https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct6r7h

#AQIM #JNIM (Jama'at Nasr al-Islam wal-Muslimin) #Sahel #Turkey Levent Kemal: Turkish-made UCAVs used by local operators were featured in the JNIM/AQIM video, with the JNIM/AQIM leader openly mentioning Turkish mercenaries and Sadat. Over the past few months, numerous Syrian opposition fighters were allegedly deployed to Niger and Burkina Faso. Most probably the JNIM leader is referring to this situation. @turkey

Hamadine Driss Ag Mohamed, son of #Abeibara’s village chief, told AP that Malian soldiers and fighters from the Russian mercenary group #Wagner had killed 46 civilians.

“The Malian and Wagner soldiers executed old men and shepherds and stole everything they found in the camps such as money and valuable jewelry”.

Senegal: Oppositionskandidat Faye führt bei Präsidentenwahl

Noch vor wenigen Tagen saß er im Gefängnis, bevor der scheidende Präsident eine Amnestie anstieß.

Westafrikas beständigste Demokratie 🇸🇳 scheint diese Wahl ohne Gewalt und Verfassungskrise zu überstehen.

Doch was kommt jetzt?
Die Opposition steht für umstrittene Wirtschaftsreformen, die westliche Investoren verunsichern könnten.

Spannende Zeiten für den Senegal! 🇸🇳
