CHRONICLE OF PERPETRATED ATROCITIES IN AZAWAD: a month of terror and barbarism in February 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The month of February 2025 stands out tragically in the long series of acts of violence that have devastated the northern regions of Azawad. The civilian populations, already burdened by persistent insecurity, were the victims of unparalleled brutality, committed by both the Malian army and its allies, the Russian mercenaries of the Wagner group, and the EIGS.
This report aims to provide a rigorous and detailed picture of the massive human rights violations committed during this month, while urging the international community to take the full measure of the ongoing tragedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The month of February began in mourning with the discovery, on February 1, 2025, of the lifeless body of teacher Daouda Ma\u00efga, cruelly murdered between Talabit and Aguelhok (Kidal region). This murder, attributed to the Malian army and Wagner mercenaries, marked the beginning of a macabre series of extrajudicial executions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
In Aslaghe, a patrol opened fire on cattle gathered at a watering point, before executing two civilians. The bodies of the victims were rigged with explosives, killing two relatives who had come to bury them. The death toll from this atrocity stands at four.
In the Inorhi area, four Hilux vehicles were targeted: one was set on fire, two were seized, and 28 people died, including three women and two girls. The fourth vehicle, under enemy fire, managed to escape, but with two dead (including a woman who succumbed to her injuries) and one wounded. Another civilian vehicle was seized, and its occupants disappeared without a trace, plunging their families into anguish.
At Tin Adjoumas, in the commune of Aguelhok, an air strike carried out by the Malian army and Wagner mercenaries targeted a civilian vehicle, killing one civilian and seriously injuring another.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
II. ABDUCTION, FORCED DISAPPEARANCE AND TORTURE: 19 confirmed cases
Kidnappings have multiplied, plunging the families of the disappeared into unbearable anguish:<\/li>\n\n\n\n
February was also marked by looting operations on a devastating scale:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
In addition to these acts of looting, civilian dwellings were also set on fire, as in Tabagout (north of Goundam), where grain stores, kitchen utensils and even pastures were deliberately burnt to the ground.
IV. HUMANITARIAN CONSEQUENCES: A MASS EXODUS OF CIVILIANS<\/strong>
Faced with this relentless violence, the population had no choice but to flee:<\/li>\n\n\n\n
The humanitarian situation is deteriorating daily, as displaced civilians find themselves deprived of everything and facing an uncertain future.
V. VIOL<\/strong> :
No cases of rape were duly recorded by us during the month of February.
