At least 21 civilians, including children, were killed in drone strikes in the northern town of Tinzaouaten, Mali. The town, located near the Algerian border, has been a site of conflict involving separatists, jihadists, the Malian army, and Russian allies. The strikes reportedly targeted areas with a significant Tuareg population, some of whom hold Algerian citizenship, raising concerns about potential Algerian casualties.
