Mali military positions attacked

Unidentified armed groups have launched coordinated attacks on military positions across Mali, including near the capital, Bamako.

Heavy gunfire and explosions were reported at the country's main international airport and the Kati military base, with fighting ongoing.

The military junta, which has ruled since 2020, stated it was repelling 'terrorist groups' in several regions.

Witnesses reported a massive security presence and blocked roads as the situation remains volatile.
