トゥアレグ勢力が政府と連携してIS勢力を打撃？

　マリ。なにやらトゥアレグ勢力が暫定政府と連合してISと戦っているのだとか。付随被害も結構ありそうだが、それはなんというかともあれ。

BBC Ex-rebels take on jihadists in Mali - report 21 Feb 2023

「Former Tuareg rebel groups in northern Mali launched joint military operations against Islamic State (IS) militants on Monday, killing hundreds of local residents and forcing thousands of others from their homes, French public broadcaster RFI reported.

The coalition, known as the Permanent Strategic Framework (CSP), pledged its allegiance to Mali's transitional authorities. It downplayed reports of tensions between its members and the national army.

The CSP said it was also declaring war against the al-Qaeda-linked Support Group for Islam and Muslims (JNIM) and a section of Coordination of Movements of the Azawad (CMA), which recently formed an alliance against IS.」

　先方さんも連合軍を組んでいるようで、そえぞれ生き残り策の一環をも占めているのだろう。

「The coalition said it had taken this decision after the army and Russian mercenaries from the Wagner Group had failed to tackle IS militants despite their presence in Ménakain north-eastern Mali.」

　とまあ。面白いのはここだ。ワグネルと政府との連携でもISを打破しきらない。そこで連合の組み換えがなされたといことらしく、ワグネルさん、十分な兵力を展開できていない？　もしかして？
