Russia has voiced support for Mali amid escalating violence, as its Africa Corps claims to have foiled a large-scale, foreign-backed coup attempt. The group alleges thousands of fighters targeted key state institutions, while also blaming Ukrainian mercenaries and Western intelligence, claims yet to be verified.

Mali’s government insists the situation is under control, but competing narratives from rebels, Bamako, and Moscow highlight a deepening information war over the country’s security crisis.
