On April 25, 2026, JNIM (Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin) and the FLA (Azawad Liberation Front) launched a large-scale coordinated offensive across several regions of Mali, targeting military positions in Bamako, Kati, Gao, Sévaré, Kidal, and other key locations.Malian forces, supported by Russian Africa Corps units, repelled most of the attacks and claimed to have killed several hundred insurgents. While the exact number of dead JNIM and FLA fighters remains unverified, reports and footage circulating on social media show evidence of heavy fighting and insurgent casualties. Both JNIM and the FLA have publicly claimed responsibility for the operation, describing it as a major strike against Mali’s military junta. The clashes resulted in significant but still unclear losses on both sides, with high-profile reports mentioning the possible death of Mali’s Defence Minister, General Sadio Camara, in an attack on his residence in Kati.The situation remains fluid, with limited independent verification of battlefield outcomes amid ongoing tensions in the Sahel region. ]]> Mon 27 Apr 2026 06:28:44 +0200 https://theync.com/video/5305/dead-jnim-fla-fighters-litter-battlefield-after-failed-coordinated-assault-on-mali/
