Watch Firstpost Africa examine how Europe’s deadliest conflict since World War Two has officially spilled over into the Sahel. With reports confirming that Ukrainian military specialists have deployed to northern Mali to assist Tuareg-led rebels of the Azawad Liberation Front, the war against Russia’s Africa Corps has entered a dangerous new phase. From drone operations in the desert to naval drone strikes targeting Moscow’s shadow fleet out of Libya, Kyiv is expanding its shadow campaign across African nations under Russian influence.
As Moscow denounces the move as support for terrorist networks and the Alliance of Sahel States prepares legal challenges at the International Court of Justice, the continent faces a high-stakes struggle to keep from becoming a passive proxy theater for global powers. Alyson Le Grange brings you the full breakdown on Firstpost Africa.
