Willy what are you talking about Algeria was literally annexed by the French and they had to a bloody war to get independence and you are right the Tuareg have fought for ages even against the French but they are not an extremist group they are fighting for their independence which are have done since the colonial era.
The fact that every single channel is talking about this and seems to be celebrating what happened. Mali took control of 95% of their country ever since Assimi Goita came to power. In war you loose people. Ti-n-Zaouâtene is the last city they have to take control of. But that city is on the border with Algeria. Algeria is providing terrorists with weapons and ammunition and everything they need. AES will bounce back. Africa will be free
Algeria is the one that saved Mali from collapse when the Tuareg tried to advance to the capital and we made a reconciliation agreement in 2015. Is this the reward for our actions? Our government helped you and you respond with evil. You put your hand in the hand of the Emirates and Wagner. They want to steal your wealth of gold.

They were in peace talks with the Malian government but pulled out stating that the Malian government would not offer any concessions or negotiate fairly. Even if Gaddafi was still alive they’re outside of Libya. The only thing killing Gaddafi has to do with it is the amount of arms that flowed out of Libya.

Willy, 17:50 you forgot your cut off groups on the ambush. Preventing a flank attack. Every time we did anti-ambush drills, it was chaos, frightening too. Kill rate was massive, likely hood of survival was dependent upon your aggression, weight of fire power on the enemy forces, and them being unprofessional and poorly trained...Scary AF. Love your vids sir, outstanding effort as always. Thank you mucker!
Great video, makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining how the counter and preventative movements would have to work. Regarding "bad guys vs bad guys" though, the only reason why this wouldn't be the case, is that these PMC guys ultimately are helping Mali fight against terrorism in a committed way that Mali have said wasn't previously done by France. Mali at the time had claimed that the lack of progress was due to France working with the terrorists, and it does seem that PMC is one of a number of reasons that Mali (outside of this ambush) is seeing military gains overall as part of its broader strategy. That being said about PMC standing on the side of good in this instance, I don't know the ins and outs of any remuneration deals, so can't speak to if they are onerous or fair.
Wagner wasn't in charge of the operation they were just following along, the operation was led by local forces a mistake that won't be made again. Ukrainian military was also taking part by providing assistance to militants. Willy is correct, being ambushed is bad luck and if found in one you need to be lucky to survive. I myself took part in a simulated ambush, our immediate confusion and casualties left us at a disadvantage, even when trying to fight our way out led us into a bigger ambush, the first tap was bait.
Cant trust African militaries. They probably watched to much wagner propaganda videos and thought they could just send these „supersoldiers“ into tuaregs backgarden
Now I know why Ukrainians were laughing at Wagner getting blacked. Pretty embarrassing for Wagner command, they’re no rookies. RIP to all the dead soldiers and their families, no matter who it is.

Nope, just by lack of logistics. People act as if Russia has a large amount of air assets on standby when it has never been the case. Especially in a region so remote. The only potential air power would be from Algeria. Although Russia has already burned them with their failure to deliver previous arm shipments. The diplomatic situation has degraded between Russia and Algeria to the point Algeria is selling natural gas to France.
You can be good all the time, but you can not be lucky all the time; the enemy gets a vote. My ambushes always had near and far security, they stay concealed and provide information and intel to element/ambush leader; they can also be used to counter the flanking movement, and catch them in a cross fire, the near and far security also will keep an eye out for any possible quick reaction force that may come from either direction. I was an SF bubba and my favorited classes were raids and ambushes. There is nothing like an ambush to replenish and collect equipment in a battlefield recovery. If time permits, your designated IED dude is immediately rigging enemy equipment with booby traps for when the enemy arrives to do a “rescue….or recovery”. You did a great job.
Well tbh, they signed up for this. Anyone who signs up for this line of work has to know the consequences of the job. Even the Russian government has no obligation to take the bodies.
A question which is not addressed much is the distance between the objectives of foreign actors in Africa, basically that the objectives of Russian MoD/Kremlin can be at odds with those of the Chinese. My gut feeling is that in spite of French moving out there is precise assistance in training and ops planning on anything that might hurt either Wagner or China in Africa.
Reading the plie of the commander,I think he's seriously at fault here,he really really underestimated all possibilities and now he wants to redeem him self.
Outstanding explanation. Even the way to reach to an ambush which reminds me of how it is explained in the u.s. rangers manual aka the special forces bible.
Algeria made a reconciliation in 2015 between the two sides, but Mali made a mistake today and broke the reconciliation agreement. It relied on Wagner for victory, but they defeated the evil of Algeria’s defeat. Algeria is always neutral and right. Peace cannot be achieved with weapons. It always called for brotherhood and unity and the rejection of division.
so algeria is opposed to azawad separatists and want mali to saty united and on the other does everything it can to divide morocco? bit of a hypocricy there mate?
For Russian, it is a job with haste to deny aviation losses as quickly as possible via the regular channels. Often, it takes a few days when finally footage is available, when the news is not that hot anymore. Airports are very well controlled and most of the times sat images are the only image source. Anyhow denyal or not, the Russians have been losing a hand full of planes and helicopters in a week, and those are not rebuilt.
@zszempty Ukraine also used to supply FPV drones to the terrorist organization. However, I think they stopped supplying them since I haven't seen any FPV videos in a while.
@@user-bd1uw7fs9c they know the area extremely well. The government and wagnerites had been trying to take other towns in the area. Not hard to wait in ambush on the approach to the town. It is right on the Algerian border so it could only be approached from the south along a track.
Wagner works for the Malian government, and they were in a convoy of the Malian armed forces. They are trying to rid the state of terrorists. and the French only guarded their mines, it didn't matter to the local population and terrorist groups, the main thing was not to touch them, that's the whole difference, so the Malians invited the Russians
@@tjw1861"for the people"?! How did no one care about that while France and America had their troops in Mali? Or do you want to say that Western exploitation was "for the people"?!
Tuaregs armed groups are not djhihadists!!! They are nationalists fighters for the cause of the independance of the Azawad region ( Northern part of Mali) They of course are muslims but not djihadists!!! They are at war with them since 2013 and only have been allied to the islamists for a few months against the malian regime. During the French presence in Mali they were allied to the French army but considered terrorists by the Malian state. That's the main reason behind the anger of the Malian armed forces toward France, and that's why the FAMA ( Mali army) accused France to be friends of the "terrorists"
Nationalists who conduct military operations are - in fact - terrorists…I know because my country invented terrorism and most of our national heroes are terrorists…..lol
the group is recognised to be a affiliate of AQIM by the usa and its rolling with all the bad guys of this sahel region including isis you can read about it on the au and un websites what people dont realize is these groups are what allow the modern slave trade drug weapons smuggling through africa and they are the void of chaos that allows aqim and isgs and collaborative affiliates another safe haven where they can operate out from to continue to attack not only west of africa region but even the west and europe itself so lets not romanticize that they arent that would be a mistake ,the people suggesting ukraine trade the captured dudes for weapons are absolutely idiots and should be put on a list for trying to aid and consort with a known terrorist network
From this we an easily draw the conclusion that in return for covert support viz arms and advisors from Ulcer Sam and the Nato West, the 'newly liberated' region or State of 'EasyWad' would be plundered of its natural resources (oil, Lithium, Cobalt, Coltan etc...... as per the usual gameplan) by the said United Corporate States of Blackrock and the 'rules based' WEF plunderers. The Tuaregs would then have to content their immiserated selves with compulsory Trans Drag queen story time broadcast channels and schooling for their children, rueing their own complicity with the imperialist shaitans that brought them to this pass. Hahaha, they have such wise leaders.
Bad OPSEC and or indiscrete conduct. Same thing that happened in Astan abd Iraq. The outfit I worked with was part of a DoD covert audit under guise of a 'crosstraining' program, to investigate circuit outfits. We were instrumental in shutting down Blackwater, for what that was worth. Long story short, contractors exploiting locals and getting chopped up and the pieces burned and dragged through the streets, because everyone knew who and where they were.
Your definition of a complex ambush needs a rethink. Complex ambush typically is a series of events. EG vehicle hit with ied then a follow up attack on respondng units.
Interesting stuff I doubt I’d recall any of this strategy I’d likely be in total panic. When it’s actually happening to me I’d be on maximum freak out mode lol. But on the other hand I really doubt this will ever happen to me in my safe little home unless that long called for civil war breaks out. You never know do we ? If we did know we’d be heading for the hills now and stocking up on ammo and canned goods 😉

Willy what are you talking about Algeria was literally annexed by the French and they had to a bloody war to get independence and you are right the Tuareg have fought for ages even against the French but they are not an extremist group they are fighting for their independence which are have done since the colonial era.
The fact that every single channel is talking about this and seems to be celebrating what happened. Mali took control of 95% of their country ever since Assimi Goita came to power. In war you loose people.
Ti-n-Zaouâtene is the last city they have to take control of. But that city is on the border with Algeria. Algeria is providing terrorists with weapons and ammunition and everything they need.

Algeria is the one that saved Mali from collapse when the Tuareg tried to advance to the capital and we made a reconciliation agreement in 2015. Is this the reward for our actions?

They were in peace talks with the Malian government but pulled out stating that the Malian government would not offer any concessions or negotiate fairly. Even if Gaddafi was still alive they’re outside of Libya. The only thing killing Gaddafi has to do with it is the amount of arms that flowed out of Libya.

Willy, 17:50 you forgot your cut off groups on the ambush. Preventing a flank attack. Every time we did anti-ambush drills, it was chaos, frightening too. Kill rate was massive, likely hood of survival was dependent upon your aggression, weight of fire power on the enemy forces, and them being unprofessional and poorly trained...Scary AF.
Love your vids sir, outstanding effort as always. Thank you mucker!
You don't want to be the mechanic in this situation. You might find yourself taking all the fire when the fighting starts.
Great video, makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining how the counter and preventative movements would have to work.
Regarding "bad guys vs bad guys" though, the only reason why this wouldn't be the case, is that these PMC guys ultimately are helping Mali fight against terrorism in a committed way that Mali have said wasn't previously done by France. Mali at the time had claimed that the lack of progress was due to France working with the terrorists, and it does seem that PMC is one of a number of reasons that Mali (outside of this ambush) is seeing military gains overall as part of its broader strategy.
That being said about PMC standing on the side of good in this instance, I don't know the ins and outs of any remuneration deals, so can't speak to if they are onerous or fair.

Willy is correct, being ambushed is bad luck and if found in one you need to be lucky to survive. I myself took part in a simulated ambush, our immediate confusion and casualties left us at a disadvantage, even when trying to fight our way out led us into a bigger ambush, the first tap was bait.

You can be good all the time, but you can not be lucky all the time; the enemy gets a vote.
My ambushes always had near and far security, they stay concealed and provide information and intel to element/ambush leader; they can also be used to counter the flanking movement, and catch them in a cross fire, the near and far security also will keep an eye out for any possible quick reaction force that may come from either direction. I was an SF bubba and my favorited classes were raids and ambushes. There is nothing like an ambush to replenish and collect equipment in a battlefield recovery. If time permits, your designated IED dude is immediately rigging enemy equipment with booby traps for when the enemy arrives to do a “rescue….or recovery”.
You did a great job.

A question which is not addressed much is the distance between the objectives of foreign actors in Africa, basically that the objectives of Russian MoD/Kremlin can be at odds with those of the Chinese. My gut feeling is that in spite of French moving out there is precise assistance in training and ops planning on anything that might hurt either Wagner or China in Africa.

U.S rangers are not SPECIAL FORCES the only unit in the U.S ARMY that can be called SPECIAL FORCES are the GREEN BERETS! .....Do better next time
Algeria made a reconciliation in 2015 between the two sides, but Mali made a mistake today and broke the reconciliation agreement. It relied on Wagner for victory, but they defeated the evil of Algeria’s defeat. Algeria is always neutral and right. Peace cannot be achieved with weapons. It always called for brotherhood and unity and the rejection of division.

Tuaregs armed groups are not djhihadists!!!

They are at war with them since 2013 and only have been allied to the islamists for a few months against the malian regime.
During the French presence in Mali they were allied to the French army but considered terrorists by the Malian state.
That's the main reason behind the anger of the Malian armed forces toward France, and that's why the FAMA ( Mali army) accused France to be friends of the "terrorists"

The Tuaregs would then have to content their immiserated selves with compulsory Trans Drag queen story time broadcast channels and schooling for their children, rueing their own complicity with the imperialist shaitans that brought them to this pass.
