The city of Kidal in northern Mali remains under the control of JNIM and the FLA. French diplomacy expressed concern and condemned the violence following the series of large-scale attacks. Jihadist groups from Jnim and separatist FLAM fighters seized the city of Kidal in Mali three days ago. Transition President General Assimi Goïta has not appeared publicly since the attacks. Clashes between Tama and Zarawak community members resumed yesterday in eastern Chad, raising fears of dozens of additional deaths.

“Verteidigungsminister des Landes ermordet und die Staat Kidal erobert. Selbst russische Söldner. Ziele waren militärische Einrichtungen, darunter die größte Militärbasis der malischen Armee. Mali wird seit Jahren von Gewalt erschüttert, doch diese Kämpfe haben eine neue Qualität, sagt Ulf Lessing, Leiter des Sahel-Programms der Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung im Interview mit dem IED-Studio Nairobi. Es war der größte koordinierte Angriff, den Mali seit 2012 gesehen hat. Zum ersten Mal haben Jihadisten und Tourrequipellen zusammengearbeitet, um das Regime zu Fall zu bringen.”
