Ambush on Wagner Troops in Mali Leads to Dozens of Deaths

Cell phone footage recorded by a member of the faction that recently conducted a large scale ambush against the Wagner Group and their military counter-parts in Mali. According to reports and gruesome footage coming out of the region, at least 90 people were killed in the attack, including dozens of Wagner Contractors who were conducting aid and assist operations with government forces in Mali.


A majority of the footage coming out of the region simply shows burned dead bodies stacked up next to destroyed MRAP style vehicles. but this piece of footage is one of the few videos showing the conduct of the ambush. In order for professional Wagner contractors and Mali government forces to be overrun by this group, the group must have had overwhelming fire superiority and the initiative throughout the entire attack, and the Wagner ground troops must have been entirely unsupported at the time of the attack.
