Rights group says Russia-linked airstrike in Mali killed 8 civilians last month

Human Rights Watch accused Russia-linked Africa Corps aircraft of killing eight civilians, including three children, in a June 15 airstrike on Kyrnia village in Mali. The attack involved a Russian Sukhoi Su-24 dropping munitions near the village chief's home and a cattle market. Africa Corps replaced the Wagner Group in Mali last year, and the strike is being investigated for potential war crimes.
