    Following on from my post above that named the leadership of the new jihadist group, JNIM, which are responsible for unrest in the north of Burkina Faso, a new report has emerged claiming that the French claim that they killed Amadou Koufa (one of the founders) is untrue.

    The French also claim they have killed another co-founder and senior leader within JNIM, Yahya Abu al Hammam.

    Looks like the French are on the offensive and they know their targets. Interesting that they are also using spies as I suggested would be a good tactic.

    This quote attributed to Amadou Koufe is interesting.

    When asked about a reported French spy within his cadre which led to an airstrike targeting him, Kouffa confirmed that this was indeed true but that the spy “is now in the hands of mujahideen.” It is likely that this level of infiltration is what has led to the deaths of several important leaders in Mali over the past year.
