Translated Text:

MALI 🇲🇱 | The JNIM continues its rise in power on Malian soil with 3 new attacks recorded on Thursday, September 24, in the Mopti region.

🔶 The terrorist organization has once again targeted Sévaré airport, which was already heavily hit on 09/14.

While several Turkish-made 🇹🇷 Bayraktar TB2 and Akıncı drones had been destroyed and around thirty soldiers neutralized on 09/14, the material and human toll of this second attack remains unknown for the moment.
The terrorist organization has not claimed this attack on its propaganda channel.

⚠️ However, 2 other offensives have been clearly claimed by the terrorist group:

⚫️ The JNIM published photos showing the remains of a vehicle belonging to the FAMa🇲🇱 as well as a vehicle from the Africa Corps🇷🇺, which were reportedly destroyed today by an IED on a road near Douentza.
All occupants of the vehicles were reportedly killed or injured during the attack.

⚫️ The JNIM also took control of a military camp located at the Djenné crossroads, a heavily trafficked stretch of the Mopti road used as a stopover point by the local population and security forces. No details yet on the human toll, but military equipment was recovered.
