#Mali 🇲🇱 | Today, 08/27, a very large column of armored vehicles from the #FAMa and Russian mercenaries 🇷🇺 from #Wagner is in formation to leave the bases of #Gao to go to the north. 🔹 The name of the operation is "Vengeance" and it is likely that this column will go to #Tinzaouaten. The #FAMa and especially the #Wagner mercenaries want to avenge the affront they suffered at the end of July against the Tuareg rebels of the #CSP_DPA and the terrorists of Ansar Dine (#JNIM). 🔹 Today, in anticipation of the operation, other drone strikes were carried out on #Tinzaouaten (📷 n°2) by the #FDS. ⚠️ Other towns and villages located on the route of this column of armored vehicles could be targets of the #FDS and the populations of these towns and villages could be collateral victims of this conflict.
