IS-Sahel targeted Africa Corps - Malian army vehicle near Menaka
2026-01-04

Text:

IS-Sahel released images from the Africa Corps - Malian army vehicle they targeted near Menaka, and of the helmet of one of the Russian mercenaries, adding that they monitored a helicopter landing near the IED site to evacuate the wounded.

IS-Sahel also stated that Russia "competes with the Crusader West in looting underground treasures" in the Sahel, using Africa Corps, and that the regional government only switched from American guardianship to Russian guardianship since the coups.

IS-Sahel says that despite the Wagner PMC rebranding to Africa Corps, or the Western powers withdrawing to be replaced by Russia, nothing has changed for them and that they will continue to target "Russian invaders alongside American and European invaders wherever they land [...] No distinction is made between an Eastern infidel or a Western infidel".
