The Washington Post: The Trump administration is considering military strikes in Mali against a group linked to Al Qaeda. US President Donald Trump is considering carrying out strikes in Mali targeting the "Support for Islam and Muslims" group linked to Al-Qaeda, according to the Washington Post, citing current and former US officials.
Experts believe, according to the Washington Post, that a military solution alone may not end the crisis, calling on Washington to support a political path between the Malian government, armed groups, and opposition forces.
Details
If the strikes are carried out, Mali will join the list of countries that witnessed US military operations during Trump’s second term, which includes Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria and Venezuela.
The deliberations come amid disagreement within the US administration regarding the feasibility of the military option, at a time when officials, including Sebastian Gorka, Director of Counterterrorism at the National Security Council, are pushing to carry out strikes against the group, which has become one of the most powerful armed organizations in the Sahel region, and has expanded its attacks to the West African coastal countries.
If approved, Mali will be the eighth country targeted by US military operations on Trump's orders since the beginning of his second term.
"Washington Post": The Pentagon's funding is about to run out within weeks due to the war on Iran.
