Russian mercenaries have suffered further losses in Africa. In Mali's Mopti region, a patrol of the Russian Ministry of Defense-controlled "Africa Corps," which replaced the Wagner Group, was ambushed and routed by local jihadists. This is what "Vot So" writes about . Reports of the elimination of Russian mercenaries began circulating on Monday on African monitoring sites. The ambush took place near the city of Sofara. Footage circulating online shows the bodies of at least four Russians. They have bullet wounds to the head. The publication suggests they may have been killed after they lost the ability to resist.

At the same time, resources associated with local Islamist groups claim that five Russians were killed in the attack. In addition, the death of eight African fighters accompanying Russian mercenaries was reported. Following the attack, the jihadists released footage of captured vehicles and weapons belonging to the Afrika Korps mercenaries, including three modernized Russian AK-15 assault rifles from the 2023 model year. Such weapons are more commonly used by special forces units of the Russian Armed Forces. This may indicate that Russian special forces were among the killed. Russian losses were indirectly confirmed the day before by the social media account X Wagner Truth 1W9, which is linked to the former Wagner PMC. "Some people think working in Africa is a great way to relax, unwind, do nothing, and eat exotic fruits while lounging under a palm tree. No, even here there's a war going on, and people are dying," reads the post, commenting on the aforementioned patrol's ambush. Media previously reported that in July, media outlets reported that a convoy of 200 Russian mercenaries from the Afrika Korps and 100 Malian soldiers was ambushed in Mali. In August, journalists learned that Afrika Korps mercenaries may have been captured during an attempted mutiny in Niger. Le Monde reports that approximately 200 Russian Afrika Korps troops and approximately 300 Italian troops were based at Niamey Airport . According to the publication, during the mutiny, they tried to stay out of the clashes between government forces and the rebels.
According to the New York Times, the operation began around 1:00 a.m. and continued until the morning. Niger's Ministry of Defense stated that on August 29, at approximately 12:20 a.m., a group of soldiers attempted to hold some of their fellow soldiers against their will in the barracks of Base 101 in Niamey and opened fire on "sensitive targets" in the city. The Financial Times, citing eyewitnesses and sources, reports that rebels attacked a major military base at Niamey airport, briefly seized the national broadcaster in an attempted coup, and attempted to attack the presidential palace. After being driven from the presidential palace, the rebels barricaded themselves in Base 101. According to Afrique Plus, citing a Jeune Afrique source, they held Nigerien soldiers and foreign nationals hostage.
