Intense Air Strikes Reported In Northern Mali
The military government of Niger announced that a joint force comprising Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali is conducting intense airstrikes in Mali. At least 20 people were killed during two days of fighting. Militants have seized control of the northern town of Kidal and attacked two central regions. Coordinated attacks by jihadist groups and Tuareg fighters from the FLA destabilized the Malian state over the weekend. The Nigerien government stated the operation began just hours after the groups seized these locations. The report also noted rising fertilizer prices affecting food security and social stability. Malian leader General Assimi Goïta had previously praised support from Niger, Burkina Faso, and Russia, though a joint operation had not been explicitly announced until now.
