Russian Mercenaries Behind Killings in Mali

 The New York Times published on 31 May 2022 an article titled "'The Killings Didn't Stop.'  In Mali, a Massacre With a Russian Footprint" by Elian Peltier, Mady Camara, and Christaan Triebert.

Mercenaries employed by the Russian Wagner Group have been implicated in a mass killing in Mali.  Russia and China blocked a vote of the UN Security Council on an independent investigation.
