Russian fighters intensify operations in Mali amid growing insurgency.

Russian paramilitary fighters and Malian forces have launched new operations in central Mali after al-Qaeda-linked fighters killed dozens of villagers.

Drone strikes and air raids are targeting separatist and armed group positions as Bamako attempts to regain control following a major defeat in Kidal earlier this year. Armed groups are now threatening supply routes to the capital, Bamako, raising fears of a wider humanitarian crisis.

Analysts warn that military force alone may not stop the insurgency spreading across Mali as Russia’s role in the conflict grows deeper.
