The Al Qaeda-linked Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM) militant group has fully captured the city of Sévaré in central Mali, including its airport and main military base. Sources now suggest there are over 800 JNIM soldiers roaming the city, signaling a complete takeover and a significant consolidation of militant forces in the region. This major presence in Sévaré, a key logistical hub, underscores the scale of the joint JNIM and FLA offensive that has swept across Mali. The situation continues to pose a severe threat to the Malian state and international security interests in the Sahel.
