🎯 From Hombori to Gao, the Russian mercenaries' convoy remains in the crosshairs of JNIM

📅 Thursday, July 23, 2026
JNIM has ramped up attacks against an Africa Corps convoy en route to Gao.

💥 After several improvised explosive devices on this axis, the jihadist group is now targeting infrastructure.

🌉 The Aghoudoud dam (between Gao and Gossi) has been destroyed to slow the progress of the convoys. These destructions also impact local populations.

🛣️ The Gao–Gossi-Hombori axis has been the focus of ambushes against the Malian army and Africa Corps for months (notably at Tabrichat in early and mid-July).

💬 Does this shift from IEDs to destroying road infrastructure mark a new phase in JNIM's logistical war against the Russo-Malian convoys?
