On April 25, 2026, there was no coup in Mali. Instead, rebels from the FLA (Tuareg separatists) and JNIM (al-Qaeda linked) launched major coordinated attacks on military targets in Kati, Bamako airport, Kidal, and Gao.
The "curious BBC statement" came from FLA leader Mohamed Elmaouloud Ramadane, who openly confirmed an alliance with JNIM—a rare and strategic shift between secular separatists and jihadists.
No statement was issued by Mali's junta or armed forces (FAMA) regarding negotiations or defeat.
