Recently, the Wagner PMC in Mali suffered a defeat at the hands of the Tuaregs. However, the propaganda machine has already managed to accuse the Ukrainian military of involvement in the defeat.

Earlier, northern Tuareg rebels in Mali claimed to have killed and wounded dozens of soldiers and Wagnerites in two days. However, according to Kremlin propagandists, even here it was not without the “Ukrainian military”.

“Ukrainian trace” in Mali

The propaganda channel Russia Today stated that the Ukrainian military allegedly trained the Tuareg rebels who attacked the column with Russian mercenaries, and assisted them in this in every possible way.

The “proof” was a photo with unknown servicemen, on the equipment of one of whom you can see the Ukrainian coat of arms.

RT has obtained footage of Ukrainian mercenaries from Africa. The administrator of the Grey Zone channel Nikita, known by the call signs Bely and Pyatisoty, wanted to publish these photos. But he didn’t have time… Bely also had information that separatists were being taken to Ukraine for training – they were being taught how to operate FPV drones. According to sources, Nikita planned to go to the front lines one last time, and then return and publish the materials he had collected, the Russians write.

Some propagandists went further and claimed that the Ukrainians not only trained the Tuaregs, but also took direct part in the destruction of the Wagnerites. According to them, “drone operators from Ukraine” were involved in the defeat of the Wagner PMC.

By the way, it was previously reported that the rebels could have liquidated a well-known Russian propagandist in Mali. We are talking about a Russian with the call sign “White”, who was the author of the channel Grey Zone with more than half a million subscribers.
