| Russia's Wagner Group Suffers Major Defeat at the Hands of Tuareg Rebels in Mali |
| 2024-07-30 |
| [Red State] Over 50 fighters from the Russian-controlled Wagner Group PMC may have been killed in an engagement with Tuareg separatists in the West African country of Mali. This defeat marks the single largest loss of life for Wagner Group guns-for-hire since any day it spent in Ukraine. While this was not the first time a Wagner Group expedition has been soundly spanked — see Three Hundred Dead and Wounded Russians Are a Reminder of US Airpower in Syria and The Mystery of the Dead Russian Mercenaries in Syria Deepens — it is the first time Wagner Group has been roughed up in Africa. |

| #2 "The Wagner PMC justified their defeat by a sandstorm that caught the Russians after the cleansing operation near Tin Zaouatine. The rebels ambushed the Russians there and launched a counterattack, taking advantage of the weather conditions." - cite Did they get the Beast Rabban? |
