Mali rebels have reportedly killed “dozens” of Malian soldiers and Russia’s Wagner mercenaries in fighting near the Algerian border on July 26-27. An alliance of Tuareg separatist groups called CSP-DPA* claimed its rebels "routed the entire column of Malian army and Russian mercenaries”. Several Russian military bloggers on July 28 reported that at least 20 Wagner mercenaries had been killed in an ambush near the Algerian border. If true, this would be the biggest blow inflicted on Wagner mercenaries by Tuareg rebels in Mali.
